The Copyright Office has launched its Notice of Inquiry on phasing out the compulsory licenses for MVPD's to carry local and distant broadcast TV station signals. It is seeking comment on a variety of possible marketplace mechanisms to replace the blanket license. Comments will be due 45 days after the notice is published in the federal register, which usually happens within a week or so. Reply comments will be due 30 days after that.
