Today marks the launch of OneMusic Australia, the biggest overhaul of Australia’s music licencing system in almost a century. OneMusic is a joint initiative between APRA AMCOS and PPCA which aims to simplify music licencing by requiring businesses to apply for one licence, instead of two. According to APRA AMCOS chief executive Dean Ormston, unifying music copyright management will make compliance easier and make sure rights holders are fully remunerated when their music is played in public.
