HFA collects and licences mechanical royalties and, pre-2002, also licensed synchronisation rights. It does not administer the performance right, sampling rights or post 2002 the synchronisation rights - where users would need to contact BMI, ASCAP and/or SESAC. HFA operates Slingshot as a stand alone 'one stop shop' for rights management telling potential customers that they can “obtain and manage all of your licenses, ensuring timely and
accurate licensing and increased speed to market.”
Michael Simon, President and CEO of HFA.“HFA continues to forge relationships that join content
creators and digital music distributors in win-win opportunities. We are
thrilled that Google is developing new music publishing revenue streams and are
delighted to streamline their content clearance process so that they can focus
on providing their customers with the best service possible,”
