Publishers should be prepared for a significant decline in Access Copyright royalties beginning in June 2017, says a new memo from Roanie Levy, the organization’s executive director.
According to the memo, the organization says it is projecting a significant drop in the amount of money distributed to creators and publishers – by as much as 55 per cent.
By the end of 2016 Access Copyright will have distributed approximately $11-million on the year. In 2017, they are projecting that total will drop to around $5-million.
