Industry Ink: NMPA, Hailey Whitters, ‘MusicRow’s’ Jessica Nicholson

May 28, 2015/by Sarah Skates

NMPANMPA Sues Wolfgang’s Vault

The National Music Publishers’ Association (NMPA), on behalf of several music publisher members, has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against “Wolfgang’s Vault,” which disseminates concert videos and audio recordings through websites including ConcertVault.com, Daytrotter.com and MusicVault.com, as well as YouTube. The suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

According to the NMPA, much of the sites’ content was never properly licensed. This lawsuit not only intends to stop these entities use of unlicensed works, but also to pay back those whose material has been exploited.

The infringing websites offer tens of thousands of hours of concert footage as on-demand streams, digital downloads, CDs, DVDs and vinyl recordings which generate revenue for Wolfgang’s Vault through subscriptions and advertising. They attract approximately 50,000 visitors per day.
