Mass NOI Charts: An Update from Royalty Claim | MUSIC • TECHNOLOGY • POLICY

An update on the state of the Copyright Office debacle also known as mass filing of “address unknown” notices under Section 115 (you can see the largely unusable posting of these notices at this link on the Copyright Office site).

Here’s some charts you won’t see in the trades or even on the Copyright Office site-Royalty Claim‘s Address “Unknown” Mass NOI chart that Royalty Claim measured by number of filings January 1-June 30, 2017:

And here’s another view by the millions of dollars of filing fees that Royalty Claim says has been paid to the Copyright Office (that is making a bundle out of the entire bureaucratic night sweat):

Remember–the Copyright Office started allowing these filings in April 2016.  The inception to date totals are closing in on 50 million filings altogether–another chart the Copyright Office will never show you.
