Alliance-Artists & Recording (AARC) was a small organization based in Washington, DC, that operated from 1993 to 2021. It was established to administer music royalties collected under the United States Audio Home Recording Act of 1992, compensating artists, writers, publishers, and sound recording copyright owners for the loss of sales due to home private copying.
AARC, with its dedicated staff and interns, known as the AARC Angels, efficiently managed the distribution of royalties to hundreds of thousands of participants, despite being a small company compared to others in the industry. Their work ensured that artists and copyright owners received their fair share of compensation for private copying.
