“TAB-Austria is the first foreign company we have ever signed such a contract with, and they have from here access to our official chart lists”, explained Phil Matcham, Senior Licensing Manager for The Official UK Charts. After the successful trial period for Max Fire Jukeboxes, TAB-Austria and The Official UK Charts have decided to enter into close collaboration and signed the deal during the ATEI show in London “The laws and regulations of a country are enormously important to us. This is why, some time ago, we acquired music rights with countries such as England, Ireland, Belgium and Germany, to name but a few,” declared Karin Scheidl, Marketing Manager for TAB-Austria. The conclusion of this contract with The Official UK Charts is another milestone for TAB-Austria: “The English music market is eager for up-to-date charts. Being able to access the official UK charts, gives us quite a competitive edge,” added Karin Scheidl. The music rights for England with the industry organisations PPL and VPL were already acquired in autumn 2006.
