AlanD Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Yes, You might be allowed to buy an iTunes...but I’m almost certain you can’t play them to a group of students useless you buy additional rights...I think there are licences schools can register for... and you need to record each an every use of a track.

This is to play music to babies.
elsiegee40 Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 This is to play music to babies. It’s still “commercial” use.
nicholab Posted February 1, 2018 Author Posted February 1, 2018 It’s still “commercial” use. Ok how do you buy music for commercial use?
kennysarmy Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 So a teacher brings in their own iPod and connects to school speakers in their room and plays to students...
elsiegee40 Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 So a teacher brings in their own iPod and connects to school speakers in their room and plays to students... And they’re breaking the terms of the music they bought. Don’t shoot the messenger. This one is right up the with needing licenses to play music in school and not being able to copy music and films onto the server. It sucks, but it’s the rules.

There is not a blanket ban on copying broadcast recordings of music, films or tv in schools.... https://www.gov.uk/guidance/copyright-licences-information-for-schools

Apple does however have rules on how music bought through iTunes may be used

Accura2k7 Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Well, from what I see, Apple states as per local copyright laws for actual purchased music, Apple Music is for personal use. iTunes Store Content: - You may burn an audio playlist to CD for listening purposes up to seven times (this limitation does not apply to DRM-free Content). You may use the audio CD to which you have burned your Content in the same ways in which you may use an audio CD purchased from a retail store, subject to local copyright laws. Apple goes on to say: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY You agree that you will not use such proprietary information or materials in any way whatsoever, except for use of the Services for personal, noncommercial uses in compliance with this Agreement. Schools are generally non-commercial (not sure on paid nursery places though) Non-commercial Use Personal interest Education e.g. for use in schools, academies, college, degree and some vocational courses e.g. Training courses provided by organisations whose primary business is not educational would be considered commercial [*]Research e.g. conducted as part of post-graduate (MSc, PhD) study, or e.g. research undertaken for public benefit where the results will be openly available to all [*]Reporting for statutory purposes e.g. Article 17 of the Habitats Directive But I would say you will need one of these at least to do it in a non-curriculum way. https://www.prsformusic.com/licences/playing-music-at-work/educational-establishments Edited February 1, 2018 by Accura2k7
