Dana Mareckova examines whether blockchain technology could improve the complicated process of licensing music across borders. The study places the technology within the history and functions of collective rights management, asking how new systems would interact with the organisations and legal relationships already responsible for administering musical works and recordings.
The first part explains the development of copyright, related rights, collective management organisations, and the licensing problems associated with online streaming. The second introduces blockchain architectures and their proposed uses in the music industry, including systems for identifying works, recording rights information, and supporting transactions. Mareckova then considers the practical and legal obstacles to replacing or supplementing established intermediaries.
Published in 2024 in the sui generis series, the complete monograph includes a bibliography, legal sources, and linked references. It offers readers interested in music law and digital infrastructure a structured comparison of technological promises with the institutional work that licensing requires.
