Hosted by the <strong>Vietnam Center for Protection of Music Copyright (VCPMC)<\/strong>, the meeting was part of a programme that brought together more than 100 representatives of collective management organisations, music publishers and international digital platforms from 26 to 30 October.<\/p>\n<h2>AI and society governance<\/h2>\n<p>Opening the meeting, VCPMC Director General <strong>\u0110inh Trung C\u1ea9n<\/strong> called for international cooperation as digital services and AI change the music industry. Gadi Oron thanked VCPMC for hosting the gathering and described it as a chance to share experience and develop practical responses to common challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Sessions examined lobbying, litigation and the registration of AI-generated and AI-assisted works. The agenda also covered regional communications, global digital services data exchange and arrangements involving multiple collective management organisations. Panels moderated by Benjamin Ng addressed governance, data systems and live performance administration, with society representatives and specialists examining practices that support payments to creators.<\/p>\n<h2>Rights data and live music<\/h2>\n<p>The wider programme included the Technical Online Working Group for Asia-Pacific (TOWGA), connecting societies and publishers with representatives of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\">YouTube<\/a><\/strong>, <strong>Meta<\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotify.com\">Spotify<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/music.apple.com\">Apple Music<\/a><\/strong>. Discussions covered rights verification, duplicate and conflicting claims, and music usage reporting, all of which affect the identification of rights and the collection and distribution of royalties across borders.<\/p>\n<p>National and territory reports compared developments across markets. VCPMC reported a <strong>24% revenue increase<\/strong> in the first nine months of 2026 compared with the same period in 2025. Societies also discussed royalty collection for concerts and other live music events.<\/p>\n<h2>Creators\u2019 concerns<\/h2>\n<p>The week included the Asia-Pacific Music Creators Alliance (APMA) General Assembly and a Creators\u2019 Seminar. APMA discussions covered AI and buyout contracts, including the risk that younger creators could lose long-term royalty income.<\/p>\n<p>At the seminar on 30 October, newly elected APMA Chairman <strong>Lee Shiha<\/strong> urged creators to work more closely together to defend their interests during the AI era. <strong>Arri\u00ebn Molema<\/strong> called for transparency and creators\u2019 permission when their works are used to train AI. Participants also identified international cooperation and better data connections as priorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Music rights organisations, publishers and digital
