Australian Artists Awarded Better Deal for Fitness Class Music
Media Release from the Phonographic Performance Company of Australia (PPCA)
Posted - Monday 17 May 2010

Australian recording artists and record labels have welcomed today’s decision of the Copyright Tribunal which will see improved rates paid for licensed music when it is used in fitness classes.

After hearing evidence over five weeks, the Tribunal has ruled on a new fee structure for licensed sound recordings used in fitness classes which will see profit-driven fitness operators pay a new rate of $15.00 per class or $1.00 per attendee in a fitness class.
