Other information to be aware of.
The ProDub Licence allows an individual to copy music they own onto various formats and devices, such as from their CDs to their laptop, for the purpose of using that device or format to undertake professional or semi-professional performances, such as those undertaken by DJs, karaoke jockeys, fitness instructors, performers etc.
Organisers and venue owners may wish to ask for evidence of a ProDub Licence
however caution should be used as individuals who use vinyl or CDs and who have not made copies will NOT require the ProDub Licence.
