How to calculate movie copyright fees

Movie copyrights also need to be charged, which is what we call Movie copyright fees every day. In view of the increasingly developed film industry in our country, the film industry has also begun to pay attention to copyright issues, and will apply for copyright before it is released. So, how is the film copyright fee calculated? The editor of Legal Savior Network has found out the relevant content for you as follows.

How to calculate film copyright fees

First, whether the charging standards and methods are reasonable. Film copyright charges involve the interests of many parties, including copyright owners, the Film and Television Writers Association and its cooperative units, Internet cafes and long-distance buses, netizens and passengers. The determination of charging standards requires full consultation and negotiation, and cannot be unilaterally decided by the Film and Television Writers Association.

Second, whether Internet cafes and long-distance buses have "consumption" options. Internet cafes and long-distance buses that are charged movie copyright fees are like "consumers" and should also have the right to "consumption". Internet cafes do not need to purchase the film library of Internet companies. Internet users in Internet cafes can directly go to free video websites to watch movies. If these video websites have purchased movie copyrights, Internet users and Internet cafes do not need to pay again. Charging movie copyright fees to these Internet cafes is equivalent to "Second payment". As for long-distance buses, some long-distance buses do not have movie playback equipment. Even if they do, the operating unit can choose not to play it and should not pay a unified fee.

Third, as some commentators have said, Will film copyright fees follow the same path as karaoke copyright fees? Copyright fees are charged under the banner of protecting the rights of authors. How much of the fees will eventually flow into the pockets of copyright owners, and how much will flow into the pockets of powerful departments and their subordinate units? This is a matter of concern.
