the three licence agreementsAMCOS/ARIA Dance Schools LicenceAustralian Performing Rights Association(APRA) For dance and callisthenics schools a single combined AMCOS/ARIA annual licence is available to cover limited uses of the following rights:
Phonographic Performance Company of Australia (PPCA) /Ausdance Special LicenceThis licence allows you to publicly perform (i.e. play) commercial sound recordings. The playing of a CD, record or audio cassette in a dance school causes the public performance of a sound recording to occur. The PPCA licence is separate to and distinct from an APRA licence. If you publicly perform a sound recording and the underlying musical work you will need to apply for a licence from both PPCA and APRA. The Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society (AMCOS)/ARIAlicenceThis is a special combination licence covering a number of ‘reproduction’ (i.e. copying) activities controlled by either AMCOS or ARIA. The licence fee charged takes account of the fact that a number of reproduction and synchronisation activities, covering both musical works and sound recordings, are collectively covered by this licence. If each of these activities was licensed separately, the user would expect to pay considerably higher licence fee. In particular, the audio recording component of this licence alone would attract a higher fee than the fee quoted for this combined licence. The special combination licence covers the following uses(a) The reproduction of AMCOS controlled by Musical Works into audio recordings; (b) The reproduction of ARIA controlled Sound Recordings into audio recordings; (c) The synchronisation and reproduction of AMCOS controlled Musical Works into video recordings (limited to 75 copies per year); (d) The synchronisation and reproduction of ARIA controlled Sound Recordings into video recordings (limited to 75 copies per year).
