Santa Monica, Calif. – March 31, 2014 – Rightscorp (OTCQB: RIHT), the leading provider of monetization services for artists and holders of copyrighted Intellectual Property (IP), announced that is has received the rights to represent more than 13,000 copyrights from Blue Pie Productions, one of the world’s leading independent labels, publishers, and distributors.

 “We are honored to secure this representation agreement with Blue Pie Productions,” said Christopher Sabec, CEO of Rightscorp. “Being acknowledged by a well-respected international label is meaningful as it demonstrates the value of our services to monitor and protect artists against copyright infringements. Global recorded music sales have suffered approximately $1.5 billion annually due to piracy which is why we are focused on helping content owners track and monetize their assets.”

 The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) states that since peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing emerged in 1999, music sales in the U.S. have dropped 53%, from $14.6 billion to $7.0 billion in 2012. According to the RIAA, approximately 30 billion songs were illegally downloaded on file-sharing networks between 2004 and 2009.
