INFORMATION SHEET – D123 – OCTOBER 2012
What is D123?
IMRO makes four major distributions for domestic income each year; in April, July, October
and December. D123 is the third major domestic distribution for 2012.
D123 covers broadcasting revenue from Irish Radio and TV stations for performances in the
first half of 2012. In addition, many of our customers use radios and TVs as a source of
background music. Revenue for this background music is distributed along with the revenue
from the broadcasters themselves.
Basis of Payment Run
Each station’s revenue is distributed as a separate pool on the basis of logs submitted by the
broadcasters.
General Music
All TV and Radio stations are paid out on a duration basis.
Advertising Music
All advertising is paid out based on duration.
The broadcasting revenue is shared amongst all performances logged and matched (i.e.
linked to a work on our repertoire database).
Submissions of music logs received too late for inclusion in the distribution are added to the
next available broadcast distribution.
Unidentified performances may be claimed by members by visiting our Online UP File and
UC File facilities, which are available by registering on the IMRO website at www.imro.ie .
Please contact Claire Egan or David Wilkinson at [email protected] for assistance with
registering on the IMRO website.
Sample Rates
Stations are categorised either as full census, sampled or mixed.
Where a station is sampled, the value paid for each play is correspondingly higher than it
would be if the station were subject to a full census.
If a station is on a mixed rate this means that they are delivering full census reports for all
automated programming (i.e. where music is played out using an automated/play-out
system) and are on a sample rate for all programming not delivered via an automated
system (i.e. incorporating specialist programming).
As it would not be economically viable to collect and process logs from Community radio
stations, the small amount of revenue received from these stations is distributed as part of
the RTÉ Radio 1 and 2FM pools.
