The Copyright Royalty Judges
announce receipt of three notices of
intent to audit the 2011, 2012, and 2013
statements of account submitted by
98frogfm.com, Christmas Music 24/7,
and ZadioRadio concerning the royalty
payments each made by each pursuant
to two statutory licenses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Copyright Act, title 17 of the United
States Code, grants to copyright owners
of sound recordings the exclusive right
to perform publicly sound recordings by
means of certain digital audio
transmissions, subject to limitations.
Specifically, the right is limited by two
statutory licenses. The section 114
license allows nonexempt
noninteractive digital subscription
services and eligible nonsubscription
services to perform publicly sound
recordings by means of digital audio
transmissions. 17 U.S.C. 114(f). The
section 112 license allows a service to
make necessary ephemeral
reproductions to facilitate the digital
transmission of the sound recording. 17
U.S.C. 112(e).
Licensees may operate under these
licenses provided they pay the royalty
fees and comply with the terms set by
the Copyright Royalty Judges (Judges).
The rates and terms for the section 112
and 114 licenses are set forth in 37 CFR
parts 380–384. As part of the terms set
for these licenses, the Judges designated
SoundExchange, Inc. as the Collective,
i.e., the organization charged with
collecting the royalty payments and
statements of account submitted by
eligible nonsubscription services such
as, among others, Eligible Small
Webcasters, and distributing the
royalties to the copyright owners and
performers entitled to receive such
royalties. 37 CFR 380.4(b)(1). As the
designated Collective, SoundExchange
may conduct a single audit of a licensee
for any calendar year to verify royalty
payments. Id. at § 380.6(b). Prior to
conducting an audit, SoundExchange
must file with the Judges a notice of
intent to audit a licensee and serve the

On December 20, 2013,
SoundExchange filed with the Judges
three separate notices of intent to audit
98frogfm.com, Christmas Music 24/7,
and ZadioRadio (all Eligible Small
Webcasters), for the years 2011, 2012,
and 2013.
Section 380.6(c) requires the Judges to
publish notice in the Federal Register
within 30 days of receipt of a notice
announcing the Collective’s intent to
conduct an audit. Today’s notice fulfills
this requirement with respect to
SoundExchange’s notices of intent to
audit 98frogfm.com, Christmas Music
24/7, and ZadioRadio filed on December
23, 2014.
