For Music.Message from Director General Francis Gurry Music is part of an extraordinary revolution that is taking place aroundus, a revolution that is fundamentally changing the way creative works areproduced, distributed and consumed. Thanks to digital technology and the Internet, we now have access to moremusic than ever before. The Internet has created a global marketplace anda global stage for music. That is a wonderful thing for music lovers all overthe world. We need to ensure that we do not lose sight of creators and performersin the new digital economy. Is their role given sufficient value in these newsystems? This is an essential question. It is essential for a vibrant culturethat creators, composers, songwriters and performers are able to enjoya decent economic existence through deriving economic value from theirmusic. Without them, we don’t have music. Enormous artistic, personal, social and economic effort goes into thecreation and the performance of music. We must find a way of ensuring itssustainability in the economy. My message for World Intellectual PropertyDay is – do not take music for granted; value it. Today is a day to “get up, stand up, for music” – to ensure that our musiciansget a fair deal, and that we value their creativity and their unique contributionto our lives.

INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT SYSTEM UNDERPINSTHE DIGITAL MARKETPLACE Developments within the online digital music market-place are further evidence of the pace of change withinthe industry. Digital music markets have diversifiedand developed. The popularity of download services,while still high, is flat-lining and even declining whilestreaming services such as Spotify and Deezer aregrowing. Streaming services have become an increasinglyimportant sales channel and source of revenue for recordlabels and artists. All the largest online services operate in multiple territories,making it necessary for record companies to review theirartist agreements to ensure they control all necessaryrights in all territories. In turn, the services have had tosecure licenses covering all territories in which they operate. The emergence of so many new services and newoperating models demonstrates both the efforts madeby right holders and digital services and the resilience ofthe international copyright system.
