The Shepherds are back! After some much needed R&R, the shepherds take the podcast remote in our first ever "Shepherd's Pie" mini-series to discuss some interesting developments in the changing of mandatory minimum royalty rates for streams and physical sales. The Shepherd's discuss the ever evolving disputes between songwriter organizations and DiMA (Digital Media Association), and what part the US Copyright Board plays in the music industry.
