| From the Where2sing.com forum: Hi
Here is a snipet of an email direct from amcos. We have just completed all necessary requirement to use our computer system, it takes a lot of time but is worth it in the end. Hope the info helps.
Thank you for your licence inquiry.
As discussed, AMCOS represents music publishers/composers and offers an AMCOS Casual Blanket Licence to cover the reproduction of their Copyright in the copying of karaoke/audio tracks. The other copyright contained within karaoke recordings belongs to the karaoke manufacturer (in most cases) which is the actual sound recording's copyright; I would therefore also suggest getting in touch with them directly for their permission (if you have not done so already).
The AMCOS Casual Blanket Licence has a minimum annual fee of $60.00, which will cover a number of tracks to be produced within the term. Tracks rates are based on 17.5 cents per track per reproduction, which means that the minimum fee will cover the reproduction of 340 tracks onto your laptop/hard drive. This track rate reduces to 12 cents a track for 2500 tracks or more and to 8.75 cents for 5000 tracks or more. NB all fees quoted are ex GST.
