On 30 September 2026, IMPF and IMPEL proposed principles for generative-AI music licensing. They distinguish payments for past uses, training, generated outputs and future exploitation, and call for rightsholder involvement in scope and valuation. This is an industry negotiating framework, not a concluded collective licence or a statutory tariff.

Source · Joint Statement: IMPEL and IMPF on Fair Licensing for Generative AI ↗Material description
The statement argues that compositions should be valued at least equally to recordings absent other salient factors. Licences should specify uses; limited pilots should not establish broad precedents; deductions, valuation and reporting should be transparent. The organisations also report three attribution-technology pilots, without establishing independently verified attribution accuracy. Both pages of the official joint statement were read. This is an archive summary, not a full-text reproduction. Attribution technology and subsequent implementation have not been independently tested. Discovered and catalogued on 1 October 2026; event dated 30 September 2026. Translation is AI-assisted and awaits independent human review.
