Per programme rates

If a licensee’s total Production Music use fee (on a per programme basis) is calculated as being higher than that of the per programme rate then the per programme rate will automatically be charged.

  • The per 30 second cue and Per-Programme rate for Channel Five includes the right to use production music on Fiver and Five USA at no additional charge.
  • All TV programme rates also include +/- 30 day catch up for Video on Demand (VOD)
  • Per-Programme rates are capped when ten x 'per 30 second' cues are used. Aggregation is also applied to the use of the same track within a production.

Once signed up to the IPC scheme, the process is straight forward, submit your reporting in the usual way indicating to your account manager what rights and options you require for each production.
