DIGITAL SERVICE PROVIDER
DURP
DESCRIPTION:
The DURP enables music distributors to gain visibility into recordings that The MLC has been unable to fully match to musical works. The information about these recordings is derived from usage reports delivered to The MLC from DSPs containing metadata delivered to DSPs from distributors. The purpose of offering such an unprecedented view into The MLC’s unmatched recordings data via the DURP is to encourage distributors to explore ways in which the distributor can help The MLC pay out the associated unclaimed royalties to the appropriate rightsholders.
