What is a copyright collective?

A copyright collective, also known as a collective management organization, is an organization that manages the copyright of multiple authors or creators. In North Dakota, copyright collectives are responsible for collecting and distributing royalties from copyright holders to the copyright holders. This includes both creators and users. Copyright collectives generally act as a middleman between the copyright holders and those who are allowed to use the work, referred to as "users". They make sure that all users receive the proper royalty payments and ensure the copyright holder is compensated for the use of their work. Copyright collectives also help in policing copyright violations and helping to prevent copyright infringement. Copyright collectives are important in protecting the rights of copyright owners and ensuring they are adequately compensated for their work. They are also important in providing a secure way for users to access copyrighted work without fear of copyright infringement.
