ORDER OF THE BOARD
Proceeding: Online Audiovisual Services – Music (2014-2018)
May 24, 2023
[1] In Notice CB-CDA 2023-018, I indicated that I would require SOCAN and SODRAC to make submissions on how to define the scope of the “music video” proceeding, and that other parties would be permitted to make such submissions. I do so here.
I. Submissions
[2] SOCAN and SODRAC shall—and other parties may— file a submission on the appropriate scope of the “music video” proceeding by Thursday, June 15, 2023.
[3] Any such submission must identify and explain
which users, uses, and/or subject-matter would be covered in the music video proceeding;
which portions of the Proposed Tariffs listed in the Annex would be engaged by the music video proceeding;
any procedural advantages of the proposed scope; and
any substantive advantages of the proposed scope (e.g., ease of administration, easier to determine revenue base).
[4] Furthermore, submissions by SOCAN and SODRAC must include text that may serve as the application section of an eventual tariff that would be approved in the “music video” proceeding. This text must identify the acts that would be permitted in such a tariff.
[5] Submissions must define the terms used, including when used to refer to
i)the service (e.g., “online music service”, “service”) and
ii)the subject-matter covered (e.g., “musical audiovisual work,” “music video”).
II. replies
[6] Any party may file a reply. Any reply must be filed with the Board by Thursday, June 29, 2023.
