“VPL is the collecting society set up by the record industry in 1984 to grant licences to users of music videos, eg. broadcasters, programme-makers, video jukebox system suppliers. Whoever owns the rights in a music video can become a member – membership is free – and the licence fee income we collect from users is paid out to our members (after deduction of admin costs). We currently have approximately 900 members – from the major record companies to the smallest independents - and 50,000 music videos registered with us.“
You need one if… you play music video as foreground entertainment, except where you simply have a television on, showing a channel which is broadcasting music videos.
Annual license fee typically around £600 but depends upon variables such as the number of screens on the premises.
