Episode Four: Understanding The Music Modernization Act
b'In this episode we discuss the significance of the Music Modernization Act, a ground breaking bill for the music industry that made its way to the White House just this past week. The MMA has been described by many as the first piece of legislation in decades to offer fair play to musicians. Not only has the MMA found common ground between opposing interests in the music industry, but it has also earned the support of both Republicans and Democrats in Congress. A lot of work has been put into this bill, with an extensive history leading up to it. We are joined by Steven Marks, chief of digital business and general counsel at The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) who kindly gave us his time to further analyze this bill for us all to better understand what it means for the music industry and why you should know about it.'
