We are so grateful for the trust all Composers, Lyricists, Publishers and other Collective Management Societies have placed in us. In the years to come, we will make sure that you receive royalties for your music regularly and on time, and we will defend your interests in the Czech and European Parliament.

We thank all music users for the sent royalties, which form an integral part of the income of the authors of your favourite songs. We will continue to act as one stop shop for all Collective Management Societies for you in order to simplify licensing.

Thank you for your cooperation and respect for intellectual property. Thank you for helping to create an ecosystem called the creative industry!
