HFA has over 48,000 music publishing clients and issues the largest number of licenses for physical and digital formats of music.[1] It was founded in 1927 by the National Music Publishers Association.[2] The agency was sold to performing rights organization SESAC in 2015,[3] which was itself acquired by The Blackstone Group in 2017.[4] ServicesHFA provides the following services to its affiliated publishers:
SongfileSongfile is an online mechanical licensing tool designed for the D.I.Y music industry market. It allows the public to search through over millions of songs and purchase licenses. A mechanical license is needed if one wants to manufacture and distribute recordings that he or she did not write.[6] Through Songfile, licenses can be obtained for physical works, permanent digital downloads (PDDs), ringtones, and interactive streaming distribution.[7] Users pay a low per-song processing fee and royalties for licenses, which are set at the current U.S. statutory rate.[8] SlingshotServices include end-to-end support for: Licensing, Database Management, Royalty Services, Content Consulting, and Auditing.[9] Copyright claimsIn October 2012, HFA became involved with copyright claims of musical works in the public domain on YouTube. As the designated YouTube administrator for thousands of music publishers, HFA uses the Content Management System (CMS) to review YouTube user disputes for the use of song compositions protected under copyright law. Many arrangements of public domain works are under copyright, even if the original is not, and because the CMS tool is not perfect, some false disputes are created.
