AUDIO WEBCASTING/ONLINE RADIO
Recorded Music NZ’s Audio Webcast Licence is a 1-year renewable licence for those operating non-interactive webcast activities, with annual revenue of less than $15,000 per annum.
The annual licence fee is $260.00 (+GST) and the following terms apply:
- The webcast service is a single music channel communicated without interactive controls to users and no permanent or temporary file is retained by the user
- Effective technologies must be installed which prevent stream ripping/copying
- Metadata that identifies tracks and artists to be communicated alongside transmission (but not prior to transmission)
This licence is available for audio webcasters based in New Zealand, operating a single channel service only, with listeners who are also based in New Zealand.

The General Entertainment Licence is for online news/entertainment and archiving services, offering audio and video content for general entertainment purposes. The licence authorises the communication by streaming sound recordings from a website on a non-interactive basis. Licence fees vary depending on the nature of the service and the quantity of sound recordings communicated.
