The Harry Fox Agency and RightsFlow Enter Download Licensing Arrangement

"We are very excited to begin this relationship with HFA," stated Patrick Sullivan, President and CEO of RightsFlow. "Our clients look to us to provide a turnkey outsourced solution for publishing licensing and royalty administration. Working with HFA is a key step that will allow us to license and account more swiftly and efficiently, allow our clients to get more product available for sale, and create a greater value for all."

"This arrangement illustrates how HFA provides business solutions that facilitate the distribution of music by enabling RightsFlow to act as a licensee on behalf of its clients," said Gary Churgin, President and CEO of HFA. "RightsFlow will use HFA's bulk licensing system to handle mechanical licensing, ensuring that publishers and songwriters are properly compensated under U.S. law."

HFA began offering bulk digital download licensing in 2002. HFA represents over 1.9 million songs from almost 35,000 music publishers for mechanical licensing within the U.S. Under American Copyright Law, mechanical licenses are required for music to be distributed through online music services. The current U.S. statutory mechanical rate is 9.1¢ for songs five minutes or less and 1.75¢ per minute for songs over five minutes.
