To get an access to the Indian Performing Right Society (IPRS) repertoire of more than a million of titles spread across multiple languages, eras, and genres of Indian music, Amazon India has partnered with it for its ad-free music streaming service Amazon Prime Music.
IPRS chairman Javed Akhtar commented, “The IPRS arrangement with Amazon India heralds a new era for IPRS and the music community in the country. With a strongly united IPRS, Indian lyricists and music composers can finally now start to reap the benefits of the historic changes to the Copyright law in India along with our music publisher members. IPRS looks forward to similar collaborative & positive relationships with platforms in India and is committed to transparent and ethical functioning.”
IPRS which was granted registration as a Copyright Society by the Government of India in November 2017 under the Copyright Act, 1957 represents more than 4000 Indian Authors, Composers and major Music Publishers.
According to Amazon Music India Director Sahas Malhotra, “We will continue to offer a transformative music listening experience to our customers with the ad-free Amazon Prime Music offering that comes at no additional cost to Prime members in India”.
