Adjustment
The Copyright Office announces final regulations governing the adjustment
of the royalty rates for the cable statutory license. The new cable rates
and the gross receipts limitations are applicable to the second accounting

of the new rates shall be due no later than March 1, 2006, for the accounting
period beginning on July 1, 2005, and ending on December 31, 2005. In the
future, readjustments to the section 111 cable royalty rates will be considered
by the Copyright Royalty Board under a new program established by Congress
