17 February 2012: The Federal Court has handed down another decision which grapples with broadcasting in the Digital Age, in particular the question ‘is streaming a broadcast?’. Justice Foster dismissed PPCA’s claim for the payment of additional royalties for the streaming of PPCA sound recordings as part of radio programs. His Honour said: “the simulcast transmission of the same radio program via the FM waves and the Internet is also a “broadcast” within the current definition of that term in s 10(1) of the Copyright Act and, for that reason, is within the scope of the licence which PPCA agreed to grant to the members of CRA”.
