Collective remuneration to Norwegian rightsholders
Norwegian rightsholders have established a system of collective distribution. Most of the collected remuneration is distributed through the member organisations.
The distribution to the rightsholders' organisations is based on what is copied, following a key negotiated among the various organisations. It is subsequently up to the organisations to pass the remuneration on to the rightsholders.
Members and non-members of the organisations are to be treated equally.
