Encode, store, reproduce and stream Artist Videos and Lyric Videos via the WATH Service (A) as on-demand (or "interactive") streams available for playback at the selection of the end user, (B) as part of playlists in a sequence designated by WATH, a third party platform or service, or the end user; and/or (C) on a linear, pre-programmed basis where the end user can neither skip, fast forward or rewind content.
  2. Make Artist Videos and Lyric Videos available on all third party internet destination sites and through a WATH branded embedded player, and across other IP-connected devices and applications, including, without limitation, personal computers, mobile/smart phones, connected media players and IPTV.

3. The applicable music publisher reserves all rights in and to the Compositions, including but not limited to, the right in its sole discretion to restrict or rescind the use of any Composition by giving notice to WATH.
