Research on the Impact of Intellectual Property on Music

If you are a musician or involved in the music industry we would very much welcome your views, please spare a moment to take our online survey it should only take 5 minutes.

Our survey is available at http://www.survey.ljmu.ac.uk

The research is undertaken by the School of Law at JMU and is analysing the relationship between traditional music and the laws of intellectual property. In addition the research is considering initiatives such as the Creative Commons that attempt to deal with imbalances in the intellectual property regimes. This survey is part of data gathering and analysis on the impact of intellectual property in the creative music industry and will, if possible, be supplemented by face to face interviews with local musicians and representatives of the music industry.
