A survey of AMPAL members has valued the Australian and New Zealand Music Publishing Industry at more than $AUD 200 million a year. Although the survey included data from the industry collective management societies APRA|AMCOS, it only related to royalties flowing through music publishing companies and did not include money paid directly to songwriters and composers. The survey will be used as a base line for comparisons going forward. AMPAL members provided confidential information to auditors Rosenfeld & Kant who aggregated the data.
