Abstract

The emergence of digital technologies and the internet has revolutionized the way people access and consume creative works. In this context, the role of copyright societies has become increasingly important in managing and protecting the rights of creators and copyright owners. This paper explores the relevance of copyright societies in the digital age, examining their historical development, functions, and challenges in the digital environment. The study analyzes the impact of digital technologies on the activities of copyright societies, such as licensing, collecting, and distributing royalties, and discusses the role of technology in facilitating these activities. The paper also considers the legal and policy issues surrounding copyright societies' operations in the digital age, including the need for greater transparency, accountability, and governance. Finally, the study offers recommendations for copyright societies to adapt to the changing digital landscape and to better serve the interests of creators and copyright owners in the digital age.
