Yandex Music, VK Music, Sound and MTS Music from today begin to label foreign agent musicians in their services. This was announced by Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy Anton Gorelkin.
He stated that the details of the project were discussed for a long time with foreign countries, but a solution was eventually found. The authorities will monitor compliance with the new requirements. If necessary, measures are taken, but what measures are not specified.
Yandex Music and MTS Media told RBC that since music streaming services do not work with artists and their content directly, music streaming companies are notified by industry associations or regulators of the artist’s influence as a foreign agent. [РБК]
