Entertain customers and employees risk-free. The MPLC license lets you show and stream TV programs and films while complying with copyright law.
MPLC eliminates the copyright compliance gap that car dealerships don’t know they have – the unlicensed use of TV, movies and streaming on screens in the places customers, visitors, and staff gather. MPLC’s one simple license closes that gap and protects dealers from this unanticipated legal exposure.
Licensed entertainment playing throughout your dealership and service center is an amenity that is appreciated by customers and owners. With an MPLC license, you can stream or show popular TV programming or movies without risk.
Under copyright law, businesses and organizations that show TV, streaming, videos and film need a license. MPLC protects you from the risk of being unlicensed, which can include fines.
MPLC removes the unknown copyright risk of streaming or showing TV programming in your dealership’s shared spaces. One simple license covers a lot of screens and retroactively resolves unintentional exposure.
When TV and movies are playing in your dealership’s waiting areas and breakrooms, you enhance customer and employee experiences. With an MPLC license, you can be confident you’re doing it legally.
An MPLC License is an easy, smart investment. Licensing is simple, and the coverage is comprehensive.
It only takes five minutes to apply. One license and your dealership is fully covered.

Turn on those screens with peace of mind. With the MPLC license, you’re protected from copyright risk.
Many dealers are not aware that there can be a gap between accessing content and having permission to show it in a commercial setting. If you’re showing or streaming TV in shared spaces anywhere on your premises, an MPLC license closes the gap. With a quick application, you are fully compliant with the law and can continue showing your customers and staff our rightsholder content with confidence.
Dealerships that do not have a license are subject to fines and damages of up to $150,000 per copyrighted work. This often happens without awareness of the law. An MPLC license removes that uncertainty and provides reassurance that your use of content is appropriately covered.
The MPLC Blanket License provides a simple, all-in-one solution. It covers a wide range of content from thousands of rightsholders, so you don’t have to track usage or manage permissions screen by screen, making compliance straightforward.
Yes. Just as ASCAP and BMI cover music use in public settings, MPLC covers TV, films, and streaming content.
