* ■ What is KADOKAWA’s MCN “CSP”? *
“CSP” is a system in which KADOKAWA utilizes the system provided as an MCN (*) operator and builds its own secondary usage management and revenue distribution system, allowing creators to use content from other companies such as games, anime, etc. on YouTube etc. By using copyrighted works such as comics and music, and by licensing and promoting the secondary use (including clippings) of copyrighted works (IP) created by oneself, one can not only act as a “creator” but also as a “rights holder.” This is a service that allows you to earn income and PR opportunities even if you are a copyright holder (starting in March 2022).
We have already started implementing it for some copyrighted works (IP), such as KADOKAWA’s YouTube animations and content from creators, and this will create a “chain of creation” even on various SNS that have strict management of copyrighted materials. You can expect. In addition to managing secondary usage and distributing revenue, as YouTubeMCN, we also provide various services that are useful for creators’ creative activities, such as providing the latest YouTube update information, collaborating with other businesses of the KADOKAWA Group, and planning corporate tie-up projects. Provides support functions.
(*)MCN is a third-party service provider that partners with multiple YouTube channels to provide services including audience development, content programming, creator collaboration, digital rights management, monetization, sales, and more.
