Document background
The Music Distribution Contract serves as a crucial legal framework for establishing distribution rights and obligations in the Belgian music industry. It is typically used when artists, labels, or rights holders want to engage professional distributors to make their music available across various platforms and formats. The agreement, governed by Belgian law and compliant with EU regulations, covers essential aspects such as distribution territories, revenue sharing, technical requirements, and quality standards. It is particularly relevant in today's digital age where music distribution spans multiple formats and platforms, requiring careful consideration of both traditional and digital distribution channels. The contract ensures compliance with Belgian copyright law, EU digital single market regulations, and data protection requirements while protecting the interests of all parties involved.
