German Kindergartens Ordered To Pay Copyright For Songs 291

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday December 29, 2010 @01:56PM from the easy-as-taking-music-from-a-baby dept.

BBird writes "Deutsche Welle reports: 'Up until this year, preschools could teach and produce any kind of song they wanted. But now they have to pay for a license if they want children to sing certain songs. A tightening of copyright rules means kindergartens now have to pay fees to Germany's music licensing agency, GEMA, to use songs that they reproduce and perform. The organization has begun notifying creches and other daycare facilities that if they reproduce music to be sung or performed, they must pay for a license.'"
