JASRAC’s Social Media Presence Sparks High Expectations

In a recent tweet, @JASRAC_1939 has sparked excitement among its followers by referencing expectations for the Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers (JASRAC) on social media. Since its founding in 1939, JASRAC has been dedicated to protecting the rights of authors, composers and publishers of music-related works. It is Japan’s only organization authorized by the government to license copyrighted works. As such, it is responsible for collecting royalties from those who use or perform copyrighted works. In recent years, JASRAC has made efforts to increase public awareness of copyright issues through various initiatives. For example, it launched an online copyright education program in 2017 and opened a YouTube channel in 2018. However, many have argued that these efforts are not enough to reach younger generations who are increasingly active on social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram. The tweet from @JASRAC_1939 suggests that the organization may be looking to expand its presence on social media platforms in order to better engage with younger audiences. The tweet reads “For reference purposes, here is our expectation for JASRAC's SNS [social networking services].” This statement implies that JASRAC may be considering launching accounts on popular social media sites or increasing its activity on existing accounts. If this proves true, it could mean big changes for how JASRAC communicates with the public about copyright issues and how they can protect their rights as authors and composers. It could also provide an important platform for raising awareness among young people about copyright laws and regulations in Japan. Only time will tell if @JASRAC_1939’s tweet was merely a suggestion or an indication of future plans for increased engagement with social media users around the world – but either way it has certainly sparked high expectations among those who follow them online!
