If the share of phonograms is very minor or they are used only for some individual contents, a separate remuneration arrangement can be made.
When the share of phonograms is determined, all protected recordings represented by Gramex are taken into consideration. Gramex adjusts its pricing annually based on how general income and cost levels develop. Value added tax is added to all prices.
