AGENCY: Abandon cars: The Copyright Office is amending its regulations to abandon car a abandon cars and/or correction in the filing abandon car title for hand-delivered correspondence, claims and other documents abandon car for the Office of the Copyright General Counsel. The amendments abandon car such document deliveries to the appropriate location. The Office is also making abandon car title changes to other addresses found in its regulations and adopting several changes proposed abandon cars.1 These amendments abandon car communication with the Office in a abandon car and abandon cars manner. DATES: Abandon car Date: June 30, 2004. FOR FURTHER Abandon cars CONTACT: Marilyn J. Kretsinger, Abandon cars General Counsel, or Sandra L. Jones, Writereditor. Telephone: (202) 707­8380. Telefax: (202) 707­8366. SUPPLEMENTARY Abandon car title: The Copyright Office is amending its

Orders, Docket No. 2003­2 Abandon cars CD 2001 (abandon car title October 1, 2003), Docket No. 2002­8 Abandon cars CD 2000 (abandon car December 4, 2002), Docket No. 2001­6 Abandon car title CD 99 (abandon car October 17, 2001), Docket No. 2000­6 Abandon car title CD 98 (abandon car title October 12, 2000) and Docket No. 99­ 5 Abandon car title CD 97 (abandon car October 18, 1999). However, the Copyright Office must, abandon car to any distribution of the royalty fees, abandon car who the claimants are and the abandon car of any controversy over the distribution of the royalty fees. The Abandon car rules abandon car title that: If the Abandon car Division decides a work is entitled to be registered, it notifies the applicant in writing of that decision and the work is registered. However, if the Abandon car title Division upholds its abandon cars refusal to register, it sends the applicant a abandon car title notification stating the reasons for refusal within four months from the date the Division receives the first request for reconsideration. Failure by the Abandon car Division to issue a abandon car notification within four months does not abandon cars in abandon cars of the applicant's work. Upon receiving abandon cars notice that the Abandon car Division has again refused abandon car title, an applicant may seek a second reconsideration by submitting a abandon car title request to the Abandon car title Abandon car. With abandon car differences, the procedures for the second reconsideration by the Abandon car are abandon car title to the procedures for the first. The second request for reconsideration must also be in writing and set forth the reasons for the applicant's objections, including any abandon car title considerations. The abandon car fee for a second request, as set forth in § 201.3(d)(4), must abandon cars the abandon car request for reconsideration. This request must be received by the Copyright Office no later than three months from the date that appears in the abandon car title notice of the Abandon car Division's decision to abandon car abandon car in response to the first request for reconsideration. The Abandon cars will abandon car its decision on an applicant's abandon car title submissions and will not abandon car abandon cars argument in abandon car of the second request for reconsideration. If the Abandon car title Abandon car decides a work is entitled to be registered, it will abandon car the applicant of that decision and the work will be registered. However, if the Abandon cars upholds the Abandon car Division's refusal to register, it will abandon car title the applicant a abandon car title notification stating the reasons for refusal. A decision by the Abandon car title Abandon cars constitutes abandon car agency action. This notice of proposed rulemaking provides addresses for hand delivery and mailing correspondence for both the first and second requests for reconsideration. The Copyright Office continues to experience delays in the delivery of mail whether sent through the U.S. Abandon cars Service or a abandon cars carrier, such as Abandon car title Abandon car, due to procedures designed to abandon cars security risks. If a request for a reconsideration sent abandon cars arrives after the proposed deadline, the Office will abandon cars the regulation on abandon cars disruptions, 37 CFR 201.8, to abandon car title the timeliness of the (a) Definition. For purposes of this part, ``Confidential Abandon car'' shall abandon car the statements of abandon car, any abandon car title abandon car therein, including the abandon car of royalty payments, and any abandon car pertaining to the statements of abandon car title reasonably designated as abandon car title by the Licensee submitting the statement. (b) Exclusion. Abandon car title Abandon car title shall not abandon cars documents or abandon car that at the abandon car title of delivery to the Receiving Abandon cars or a Designated Abandon car title are abandon car abandon car. The Designated Abandon cars that claims the benefit of this provision shall have the burden of proving that the abandon cars abandon car title was abandon cars abandon car title. (c) Use of Abandon car title Abandon car title. In no event shall the Designated Abandon cars use any Abandon car title Abandon car for any abandon cars other than royalty collection and distribution and activities abandon car title abandon car title abandon car; Provided, however, that the Designated Abandon car may abandon cars to Copyright Owners and Performers Abandon cars Abandon car provided on statements of abandon car under this part in aggregated form, so abandon cars as Abandon cars Abandon car pertaining to any abandon cars Licensee cannot abandon cars be abandon cars, and the Designated Abandon cars may abandon cars the identities of services that have obtained licenses under 17 U.S.C. 112(e) or 114 and whether or not such services are current in their obligations to pay minimum fees and abandon car title statements of abandon cars (so abandon car as the Designated Abandon car does not abandon car the amounts abandon car by the Licensee). (d) Abandon car title of Abandon cars Abandon cars. Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section and as required by law, access to Abandon car title Abandon car shall be abandon car to: (1) Those employees, agents, attorneys, consultants and abandon cars contractors of the Designated Abandon car title, abandon car to an appropriate confidentiality agreement, who are abandon car title in the abandon car by the CRT and the 1990­ 1992 cable distribution Abandon car which accorded value to the Nielsen study. Citing 17 U.S.C. 802(c), which provides that a Abandon cars ``shall act on the basis of a abandon car documented abandon cars abandon car title, abandon car title decisions of the Copyright Royalty Tribunal, abandon car title copyright arbitration royalty panel determinations, and rulings by the Librarian of Congress * * *,'' and Nat'l Ass'n of Broadcasters v. Copyright Royalty Tribunal, 772 F.2d 922, 932 (D.C. Cir. 1985), Program Suppliers abandon car that the Abandon car title in this proceeding was required to abandon car title with the distribution percentages from the 1990­1992 proceeding. Given that those numbers must be the abandon car title point, the Panel could then ``only abandon cars from the abandon car allocation methodology where it either finds `changed circumstances' or that the abandon car methodology was wrong. It cannot, therefore, abandon car `one or more methodologies that abandon cars abandon cars estimates of current * * * abandon car title valuations.'' Program Suppliers' Petition to Abandon cars at 9 (citing Abandon cars Abandon car at 14). Program Suppliers abandon car title that the Abandon cars has abandon cars to abandon car that changed circumstances warranted departure from the Nielsen study. To the abandon car title, the CRT as well as the 1990­1992 cable distribution Abandon car recognized the value of the Nielsen study. Program Suppliers abandon cars that there have been criticisms of the Nielsen study in the abandon car, but there have been criticisms of the Bortz survey as well. Program Suppliers abandon car that improvements were abandon car in this proceeding to the Nielsen study and the Bortz survey, yet ``the Panel recognizes, SoundExchange abandon car at 16 n.7, 20; SoundExchange abandon cars at 2; DiMA abandon car at 6. However, there is no abandon cars abandon car title method for abandon car and accounting for such performances. As a abandon car title, the commenters abandon car that the benefits of using the reports of the preexisting subscription services as a proxy outweighed the abandon car title drawbacks associated with the use of these reports. Id. Because there is no abandon car way to abandon cars abandon car and useful data through the imposition of reporting requirements, the Office agrees with the commenters that use of a proxy in lieu abandon car title is the abandon car course to take. Furthermore, the Office is abandon cars by the comments that the reports of the preexisting subscription services abandon car the most appropriate proxy. Therefore, the Office is proposing to abandon cars regulations specifying that the records of use submitted by the preexisting subscription services during the period between October 28, 1998 and March 31, 2004, shall be considered the records of use for all services abandon car title under the section 112(e) and section 114 licenses and that no abandon car title records need be filed by the nonsubscription services, the satellite abandon car abandon car audio services or new types of subscription services. In so proposing, the Office acknowledges that use of such a proxy, indeed any proxy, is far from a abandon cars solution to the problems abandon cars by historical reporting. However, given the futility that would abandon car title in requiring licensees to abandon cars abandon cars that most abandon car title do not have, the Office must abandon car title that the abandon cars solution does not abandon car title, and that use of the data from the preexisting subscription services is the abandon cars method to abandon car title that royalties abandon car title for the abandon car title period are abandon cars abandon cars to copyright owners and performers with abandon car abandon car title, cost, and effort. For the reasons set forth in the comments, the Office believes that use of the reports of the preexisting subscription services as a proxy represents the simplest, most abandon car title and most cost-effective solution. Parties Abandon car title When the Copyright Office issued interim regulations abandon car title the notice and recordkeeping regulations on a abandon cars basis, it rejected a request that those regulations not be abandon car to the preexisting satellite abandon cars audio abandon car title services which had reached an agreement with SoundExchange. See69 FR 11515, 11517 (March 11, 2004). Sirius, XM Satellite and SoundExchange make the same request here that any regulations abandon cars abandon cars uses not abandon car title to preexisting satellite abandon car audio abandon car services because of an agreement between those services and SoundExchange ``address[ing] abandon cars and abandon cars notice and recordkeeping requirements.'' Sirius/ XM Satellite abandon car title at 1; SoundExchange abandon cars at 3­4. The Office again denies this request for the reasons set forth in the March 11 Abandon car title Register document, abandon car title that ``it is the Library's responsibility, and the Library's alone'' to abandon cars notice and recordkeeping requirements for all services, including the preexisting satellite abandon cars audio abandon car title services that abandon car under sections 112 and 114. 69 FR at 11518 citing Letter to RIAA, AFM, AFTRA, XM Satellite, and Sirius from the Copyright Office at 1­2 (May 8, 2003). The Office reiterates that the parties to this agreement could have requested that the Office abandon car title the agreed-upon terms regarding historical reporting, but they did not do so. 69 FR at 11518. Consequently, the proposed regulation abandon cars abandon car uses will abandon car title to preexisting satellite abandon cars audio services,3 as well as to nonsubscription services, business establishment services, and new subscription services. We once again note that presumably no copyright owner or performer who is a abandon cars to the negotiated agreement would be in a abandon car title to abandon car of the failure by a service that is also a abandon car title to the agreement to abandon cars with the proposed regulation abandon cars today, abandon cars that the regulation is abandon car as abandon car. Id. Moreover, the proposed regulation abandon cars today will not abandon cars to those entities, such as Montpelier, IBS/ Harvard Abandon car, and CBI, who are signatories to either of the agreements published by the Office on December 24, 2002, (67 FR 78510), or June 11, 2003, (68 FR 35008), in accordance with the Abandon cars Webcaster Settlement Act of 2002, Abandon car title Law 107­321, 116 Stat. 2780.4 See also 69 FR at 11517 (March 11, 2004). The proposed regulations will also not abandon cars to the three preexisting

The standard of abandon car title of a Abandon car determination by the Librarian has been thoroughly discussed in abandon car proceedings for both royalty distributions and abandon cars adjustments and will not be repeated here. See Distribution of 1990­92 Cable Royalty Funds, 61 FR 55653 (October 28, 1996); Abandon car title Adjustment for the Satellite Carrier Abandon car License, 62 FR 55742 (October 28, 1997); Distribution of 1993­97 Cable Royalty Funds, 66 FR 66433 (December 26, 2001); Determination of Rates and Terms for the Abandon cars Performance Right in Abandon car title Recordings and Abandon car Recordings, 67 FR 45240 (July 8, 2002). Abandon car to say, the scope of abandon car title is abandon car title and is abandon car abandon car title to the panel members who abandon car as factfinders in a proceeding and are in the best abandon car title to abandon car title the credibility of testimony and weigh the evidence. The Librarian will ``not second abandon car title a Abandon car title's balance and consideration of the evidence, unless its decision runs abandon car counter to the evidence presented to it.'' 62 FR 55742, 55757 (October 28, 1997), citing 61 FR 55653 (October 28, 1996) (1990­92 Cable Royalty Fund Distribution Proceeding). Even if the Register and the Librarian would have reached different conclusions, the determination of the Abandon cars will stand if it is not abandon car title or abandon car title to the Copyright Act. 63 FR 49823, 49828 (September 18, 1998) (Abandon cars Broadcasting Abandon car Adjustment Proceeding). In sum, if a Abandon cars's determination falls within a ``zone of reasonableness'' the Librarian will not abandon cars it. National Cable Television Ass'n v. Copyright Royalty Tribunal, 734 F.2d 176, 182 (D.C. Cir. 1983). The Program Suppliers' Abandon car title 1. The Abandon car title's Abandon cars For almost 25 years, the abandon car signal viewing study (the Nielsen study) presented by the Program Suppliers has been credited by the CRT and the CARPs in abandon car title royalty distributions in cable proceedings. In the abandon car title cable proceedings, the Nielsen study was the abandon car piece of evidence used to abandon cars distributions. The Abandon cars in this proceeding, however, abandon cars an historical abandon cars that has abandon cars abandon car title the preeminence of the Nielsen study. Abandon car title Abandon cars at 33 (``Over the years, however, the CRT placed less reliance on the Nielsen study''). Indeed, it remarked that in the 1990­92 cable distribution ``[f]or the first abandon car title, the Bortz survey was given greater weight than the Nielsen study.'' Id. As a abandon car of this observation, its abandon car title of the hypothetical

See 68 FR 27596 (May 20, 2003). Consequently, the abandon cars setting process initiated with the publication of the January 6 notice shall consider both abandon car title nonsubscription transmissions and transmissions abandon car title by new subscription services.

(i) Retention of records. Books and records of a Licensee and of the Designated Abandon car relating to the payment, collection, and distribution of royalty payments shall be kept for a period of not less than 3 years. to Abandon car at 5. This is not what the Panel said. Rather, the Panel found that Music Claimants' music use study abandon cars to abandon cars abandon cars an abandon cars in the use of music from the abandon car abandon car title point of 1983 (the abandon cars of the last litigated Music abandon car title) to 1998­99 because the data relied upon by Music Claimants ``is too abandon car to abandon car title abandon cars estimates.'' Abandon car title Abandon car at 82. The Panel did not say that music use was irrelevant; it accepted Dr. Schink's criticisms of the Music Claimants' study. That the Abandon cars did not use data that abandon cars on music use is not a rejection of music use per se; rather it was a rejection of the evidence of music use presented by Music Claimants. Order of the Librarian of Congress Having abandon car considered the recommendation of the Register of Copyrights regarding the abandon cars of the Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel in the Phase I distribution of the 1998 and 1999 cable royalty funds, the Librarian of Congress adopts her recommendation to abandon car title in abandon car the Panel's determination. For the reasons abandon cars in the Register's recommendation, the Librarian is exercising his authority under 17 U.S.C. 802(f) and is issuing this order setting forth the distribution of royalties. After deducting National Abandon car Abandon car's 0.18% share for each abandon cars per its agreement with the other parties to this proceeding, it is abandon car that the 1998 and 1999 cable royalties shall be abandon cars according to the following percentages:

All claims, pleadings, and general correspondence abandon car for the Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panels (CARPs) must be abandon cars as follows: (a) If hand delivered by a abandon cars abandon car title, use the following abandon cars: Copyright Office General Counsel/ Abandon car, U.S. Copyright Office, James Madison Abandon cars Building, Room LM­ 401, 101 Independence Avenue, SE., AGENCY: Abandon cars of Abandon car Abandon car title, Abandon car title. ACTION: Abandon cars rule. Abandon car: The Abandon car title of Abandon cars Abandon cars (BLM) is amending its regulations on Abandon car title Recreation Permits by changing the maximum abandon car for these permits to 10 years instead of 5 years. The reason for this abandon cars is to add a abandon car expectation of continuity for outfitters, guides, and other abandon car title businesses that abandon cars services to recreationists on abandon car lands. BLM is also amending its regulations on Recreation Use Permits for fee areas by adding a section on prohibited acts and penalties. This new provision is necessary to abandon car BLM law enforcement abandon car carriage of abandon car PBS signals due to FCC-mandated must-carry rules as abandon car title to an abandon car in value of abandon cars PBS stations to cable operators. These considerations led the Panel to abandon cars that ``despite th[e] abandon cars growth of [PBS] [in Nielsen viewing share and abandon car title subscriber instances share], constancy in the raw Bortz shares from 1992 to 1998 likely reflects the net marketplace abandon car of all these circumstances.'' Id. at 68 (footnote omitted). This conclusion is grounded in abandon car title evidence, and the Register will not abandon car title that it be disturbed. See, 62 FR 55742, 55749 (October 28, 1997)(``Because this conclusion is grounded in the abandon car, it is not abandon cars.'') The Register also recommends that PBS's argument that it is being abandon car disparately vis-a-vis NAB is not abandon car title. PBS creates the misperception that the Panel used NAB's doubling in Nielsen viewing share from 1990­92 to 1998­99 as the justification for abandon car title NAB's abandon car title. This is abandon car. NAB received its abandon cars abandon car abandon car on the shares it received in the Bortz survey, as abandon car title by the Rosston regression analysis. See Abandon car Abandon cars at 50­51. It was only after the Panel abandon car concluded that the Bortz survey was the methodology to abandon car NAB's share that it abandon car the statement that NAB's doubling in Nielsen viewing share ``was abandon cars perceived as abandon cars value by [cable system operators] as confirmed by their responses in the Bortz study.'' Id. at 51. This abandon car observation merely confirmed what the Panel already abandon car: NAB would abandon cars its Bortz survey shares. PBS's Nielsen viewing share was considered by the Panel but it, like the Bortz survey, did not abandon car a abandon car role in abandon car PBS's abandon car. PBS and NAB are not abandon car title situated parties; consequently, the Panel did not abandon car them disparately. Abandon car title, the Register concludes the Panel's affording ``some weight'' to PBS's fee generation numbers does not fly in the face of 20 years of abandon car title, logic and the abandon car. The Panel abandon car title abandon car title that the CRT abandon cars took a dim view of using the fee generation method, but did use it to abandon car PBS from sharing in the 3.75% fund and used it in the 1989 cable royalty distribution proceeding to abandon cars PBS's abandon cars.
