One of the big issues in the media industry is copyright. Some people in entertainment circle copy other famous people works like music melody, lyrics, the ways to take music video and style. They want to use this way to improve their popularity in a short time. But this behavior has a very bad influence on the original author, this is illegal. The original authors have legal protection to protect their own works so that their original material can not be use in somebody else's name. However, copyright can only be applied to the application of the idea, not the idea itself. If somebody want to make a public performance, he must have a permission from the copyright owner of that song before you do so.

PRS(Performing right society limited). The songwriters, composers and music publishers can get money from anyone who use their music for business benefit. They need to pay royalties to music creators around the world.
