Sing for Your Supper: How Music Rights Became the Smart Play

Michael Poster has offered extensive commentary in an article published by World IP Review titled, “Sing for Your Supper: How Music Rights Became the Smart Play” The piece digs into the uptick in music catalogue sales—including those by Bruce Springsteen, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber and the estates of Michael Jackson and David Bowie—fueled by new licensing methods, a surge in streaming and, as Michael points out, the significant rise in royalty income realized with the introduction of the Music Modernization Act.
