Alliance of Artists and Recording Companies

Overview
The Alliance of Artists and Recording Companies (AARC) is the leading U.S. organization protecting the rights of featured artists and recording companies, both domestically and abroad, in the areas of hometaping/private copy royalties and rental royalties. AARC, a non-profit organization, was formed to collect and distribute Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 (AHRA) royalties to featured recording artists and sound recording copyright owners (usually record companies.)
