• It is entitled to exercise the rights entrusted to its management and to enforce them in all kinds of administrative or judicial proceedings.
Among its functions are to issue licenses of the repertoire of authors grouped in the SGAE for exploitation in any type of business: recording on discs, in videographic or multimedia support (CD-ROM, DVD, Blu-Ray), its use in digital networks such as the Internet or mobile telephony and their subsequent commercialization, the public communication of said contents by radio stations, television networks, cable operators, exploitation in theaters, nightclubs, cinematic exhibition venues, hotel or catering businesses any other type open to the public, etc.
SGAE is not the only association of authors and publishers in Spain, nor is it authorized by 100% of copyright owners to manage the use or charge on their behalf; in fact SGAE does not own the copyright and must act in the name of its associates; The SGAE is one of the main groups against “musical piracy” in Spain. The SGAE is also positioned against downloads through P2P networks. Likewise, it claims a reduction of the taxes imposed on discs, from 16% (currently 21%) to 4% VAT.
