Updated: Licensing Guides for Broadcasters & Sync Professionals

Categories: Music Licensing and Topics. Tags: Music Business. Formats: Gallery.
Nov 24, 2025

We have updated and consolidated our licensing resources to better reflect how the Model Electronic Records catalog is used in today’s media environment, where broadcast, streaming, and platform-based usage increasingly overlap.

The following pages have been revised:

  • Licensing Our Music
  • FAQs about Licensing Our Music
  • How to Work with Performing Rights Organizations (PRO)
  • Model Electronic Records – Sync License Request Form

Main updates

  • Hybrid licensing model clarified
    Broadcast and streaming programs covered by PRO blanket licenses can use our catalog as standard PRO-registered repertoire, while commercials, corporate content, games, and other branded uses are handled via direct one-stop sync licensing.
  • Streaming originals vs. broadcast simulcast
    We now clearly distinguish between broadcaster-led simulcast / catch-up streaming and streaming originals (e.g., Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Disney+, Apple TV+), many of which require separate sync clearance.
  • Platform music libraries (TikTok / Instagram / Facebook)
    We explain how our music can be used when selected directly from official in-platform music libraries, and when a separate sync license is still required for commercial or off-platform use.
  • Updated rights management in Japan
    Domestic authors’ rights are now administered by NexTone, with international uses handled via JASRAC. Neighbouring rights on the master side are distributed via ILCJ and RIAJ, reflecting a more robust framework for broadcast and secondary uses.

These updates are intended to make it easier for broadcasters, editors, music supervisors, agencies, and production companies to work with our catalog in a way that is both creatively flexible and legally straightforward.

If you are considering using music from Model Electronic Records in your next project, please refer to the updated guides above and feel free to reach out via the Sync License Request Form.

楽曲の放送や配信へのライセンスに関するガイドラインを更新しました。コロナ禍の影響もあると思うが、このところ日本では音楽の権利処理に関する改正が著しく、海外とは独立した動きをしているので、それぞれを正確に把握するのはかなり大変。この手の話は海外のエンタメ業界では最前線にいる実務家がリードして議論をするのが普通だが、日本で目にするのは国会でのやり取りや弁護士のコメント。そこは昔から変わらない。

以前住んでいた東海岸の町は、この時期は毎週のようにストーム(雪や雨の嵐)が襲った。一番やっかいなのは停電や電力の供給が不安定になること。住み始めてすぐにノートパソコンの電源が入らなくなったので、無停電電源(UPS)を買って対策を整えたつもりだったのに、なんとUPSのコンセントを挿し間違えてしまい、またしてもパソコンが逝ってしまった。皆は当たり前のように思うかもしれないけど、日本は停電が驚異的に少ない国なのです。

楽曲ライセンスの解説ページを久々に更新中。このページを最初に作ったのは10年ほど前だが、その後メディアの生態系が大きく変わったため、追加・修正・削除が必要な部分が多かった。アメリカと日本ではメディア産業の構造もお金の流れが全然違うため、相互に翻訳して活用できる説明部分はほとんどない。まずはModel Electronic Recordsの解説ページを更新したので、海外での音楽ライセンスに関心のある方はお立ち寄りください。
