Form SC Statement Of Account For Secondary Transmissions By Satellite {SC}

FORM SC - STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT for Secondary Transmissions by Satellite Carriers of Distant Television Signals. Satellite carriers are subject to copyright liability for their use of copyrighted material when they make “secondary transmissions” (retransmissions of television broadcasts) to the public for private home viewing or for viewing in a commercial establishment and they make a direct or indirect charge for that service. Satellite carrier retransmissions of the copyrighted programming embodied in the signals of non-network or network stations are eligible under an optional system of statutory licensing that is established in Section 119 of the Copyright Act. A satellite carrier that chooses to obtain a statutory license to retransmit the signals of non-network or network stations for private home viewings or for viewing in a commercial establishment must deposit a statement of account and a royalty fee with the Licensing Section of the Copyright Office twice a year. www.FormsWorkflow.com
