PRS (Performing Right Society)

PRS (Performing Right Society) is a UK organization that manages copyright for musicians, songwriters, and composers. It ensures that creators are fairly compensated when their music is performed publicly, such as on radio, TV, in concerts, or in venues. PRS collects royalties from those who use music and distributes them to the rights holders. Essentially, it acts as a middleman that protects creators' rights and ensures they earn money whenever their work is played or performed in public spaces.
