Distribution

Users pay the collective rights management organisations a remuneration for the utilisation of a work which must be distributed as quickly and fairly as possible to the rightholders. The basis for this is established in the distribution regulations that are issued by the organs of the responsible society and must be approved by the supervisory authority.

"If it weren't for SUISA, I wouldn't be able to do what I love doing. Producers do not generally pay much for the music. So rights management accounts for a large portion of my income."
