contained in the sound recording: *Provided*, That such license to
publicly perform the copyrighted musical work may be granted either by a
performing rights society representing the copyright owner or by the
copyright owner.

licensed to publicly perform the sound recording to a particular member
of the public as part of that transmission; and
(ii) the retransmission is simultaneous with the licensed transmission,
authorized by the transmitter, and limited to that particular member of
the public intended by the interactive service to be the recipient of
the transmission.
(E) For the purposes of this paragraph-
(i) a "licensor" shall include the licensing entity and any other entity
under any material degree of common ownership, management, or control
that owns copyrights in sound recordings; and
(ii) a "performing rights society" is an association or corporation that
licenses the public performance of nondramatic musical works on behalf
of the copyright owner, such as the American Society of Composers,
