The Music Matters campaign is a collective effort by artists and all those who work in and around music to remind listeners of its enduring value. The campaign highlights the profound value of music and educates consumers on how to identify and obtain music from legitimate sources.
To help consumers make the ethical choice when looking for music online, a Music Matters trust mark has been developed to certify legitimate digital music services and leading music retailers.
