A quick definition of Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms:

The Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms, and Broadcasting Organizations is a treaty that sets rules to protect the rights of performers, producers, and broadcasters. It was created in 1961 and establishes the minimum standards for these rights. These rights are called neighboring rights and were not protected under previous copyright conventions. The United States did not sign this treaty. Neighboring rights are now part of the copyright protection under TRIPs.

A more thorough explanation:

The Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms, and Broadcasting Organizations is a treaty that sets minimum standards for the rights of performers, producers, and broadcasters. It is also known as the Rome Convention on Related Rights.

For example, if a musician records a song, the producer of the recording and the performer of the song have rights to control how the recording is used and to receive compensation for its use. The Rome Convention sets out the minimum standards for these rights.

The United States is not a signatory to the Rome Convention, but neighboring rights are protected under the TRIPs agreement. Neighboring rights are a part of copyright protection and were not protected under the Paris Convention or the Berne Convention.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.
