Music is developing new and varied uses and there is need for the growth of a healthy Music Publishing sector in the Industry. This would enable a more focussed utilization of any piece of music like in film synchronization, adaptation in plays, use in advertising films and new versions of the lyrics and tune of the original song. There are other uses which are not being tabulated for the present. The Music Industry is too focussed on the exploitation of the original in its CD format or in the "sound recording". But there is a lot more that can be done.Saha, The Indian Record Mfg.Co.Ltd.
