The U.S. Copyright Office is proposing to create a new group registration option for musical works, sound recordings, and certain other works contained on an album. The proposed rule will expand the registration options currently available to register multiple musical works or sound recordings under one application. In particular, this proposed group registration option will permit the registration of multiple musical works and/or sound recordings distributed together, regardless of whether such distribution occurs via physical or digital media.
