Reflection (R8)

Q 1. Why does ASCAP work so diligently to enforce its rights and collect the fees for its members’ songs? 2. What risks does ASCAP run if the camps continue to use the songs without payment of the licensing fees? 3. What ethical and social responsibility issues do you see with respect to those camps that are strictly nonprofit operations? 4. Can you think of a compromise that would protect ASCAP members’ rights but still offer the camps a reasonable chance to use the songs? 5. What would you do if you were an ASCAP member and owned the rights to a song a camp wished to use? Do you think Mr. Berlin’s trust has the correct approach? Could his trust not simply donate the use of the song? What problems do you see with that practice?

I think that the reason for the hard work and diligent work done by ASCAP is that ASCAP wants that there is a collection of a substantial amount of revenue coming from the utilization of the songs (Jennings, 2014). Therefore, ASCAP knows that if it does not do hard work and diligent work then it will not receive any revenue which it wants to receive from the utilization of the songs. 2. I think that ASCAP runs the risk of paying a penalty amount of $5,000 as well as a prison term in jail which can go up to being in jail for 6 days (Jennings, 2014). This will only happen if the licensing fees are not paid by the camps while continuing to use the songs.
