ICE processes royalties on behalf of songwriters, composers and publishers, sharing the associated back office costs between each of the partner collecting societies.
Under the five year contract, ICE will manage all of Buma/Stemra's copyright documentation for both domestic and international repertoire.
The Dutch society has already started migrating its members’ copyright data to the ICE database and will start distributing royalties using the ICE system in the first quarter of 2014.
ICE is a limited company based in Stockholm, Sweden which was founded in 2007 as a joint venture between STIM and PRS for Music.
It provides one combined ICE database of the millions of musical works registered with PRS for Music, STIM and now Buma/Stemra. It enables faster processing and more accurate distributions for collecting society members.
