License League Folds
License League has ceased operations, citing limited publisher support. The US privately owned content licensing business was run by former Burrelles Luce operations head Dan Schiable. The business led a brave and widely admired effort to create a central clearing house for US content rights, but the fragmented US market and the extreme stresses on US news ownership proved too great an obstacle. Schiable will continue in an advisory role to publisher licensing efforts. The worlds biggest news and media monitoring market continues to deliver less to publishers than some of the smallest.
