Record rentals worry industry
United Press International
CANNES, France — As if it
didn't have enough trouble with
record piracy and ripoffs, the
pop music industry has been
warned a tidal wave of potential
disaster is rolling across the
Pacific from Japan.
The name of this compara
tively new threat is "record re
ntal," and the grim details were
provided by the Japanese at the
industry's global get-together
here. They would have depress
ed the 5,000 composers, pub
lishers and recording stars and
executives even more had they
not already been involved with
so many other problems.
After all, when piracy and
home taping alone are estimated
to deprive the $10 billion-a-year
industry of $1.4 billion a year in
additional income; when
videotape, satellite and other
developments are racing ahead
of the ability of legislation to
protect the precious music
copyright, what's another catas
trophe?
However, even the most opti
mistic agreed the Japanese de
velopment was ominous.
In 1980, a Japanese entrep
reneur, operating under a legal
loophole that permits taping tor
home use only, opened a shop
to rent rather than to sell
albums. He charged about 1-
12th the retail price.
The idea, said the Ja(sic) Pub
lishers Association, "spread like
wildfire all over Japan." Now,
more than 800 rental shops, are
cutting down the business of
legitimate record shops in their
neighborhood by 20 to 60 per
cent and causing "huge loss of
revenue to record companies,
publishers and writers."
Takami Shobochi, president
of the Japan Phonograph Record
Association, was quoted as
saying 97 to 98 percent of the
renters tape the records for their
own libraries.
While legal experts suggested
home taping trends in the Un
ited States might enable similar
shops to set up there, Stig
Anderson, manager of
Sweden's leading foreign ex
change earners, the pop group
Abba, said it alreaav had in
vaded Scandinavia. Within an
hour of a broadcast about the
practice, he said, there were in
quiries on how to open such
establishments.
Describing it as more danger
ous than piracy, he stressed:
"It's our money that's being
stolen."
Ronald White, president of
the International Federation of
Music Publishers, said: "It is ter
rifying our members."
The annual meeting at Can
nes, called MIDEM from its
French initials, drew a larger
than expected attendance.
The tradition that people sing
when they're happy and sing
when they're sad, hence music
is basically recession-proof, dies
hard.
What has yet to be proved is
that people will buy records
when the price keeps going up
and money is tight.
With so many music people
from 56 countries in one town,
few matters of interest to the
pop field escaped discussion.
Ertegun put forward the idea
that the public might take more
notice of piracy losses if it were
r ointed out that Barbra
treisand, the Beatles, the Bee
Gees and other great current
stars were being deprived of
their just earnings.
