Abstract

Such actions constitute as violations of the economic rights of the Creator or Copyright Holder regulated in Article 9 of Law No. 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright. The method employed in this research is normative with a qualitative approach that refers to Law No. 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright. The results of this study indicate that YKCI plays a crucial role in managing the economic rights of creators or copyright holders, especially in Public Performing Rights. This ensures that the royalties for their creations are fulfilled. However, YKCI faces several challenges in carrying out its role, including the fact that its extensive jurisdiction is not proportionate to the number of human resources it possesses. Additionally, limited operational funds result in YKCI's role not being optimized. YKCI, in carrying out its duties, plays a limited role in providing education, knowledge, and guidance to enhance the creativity of creators. This results in creators being satisfied merely with their songs being played in public places without realizing that they are entitled to royalties for their creations.
