IsMasterRecording

A flag indicating if the sound recording which is the subject of the Record is a "master recording" or not.

The value true in the IsMasterRecording Cell would indicate that the resource is a master sound recording received by the licensee from a record company or distributor or for which the licensee has received a claim from a record company. 

The value false in the IsMasterRecording Cell would indicate that the resource was uploaded by an end user.

To meet the structural requirements of the profiles in the DSR standard the licensee needs to create its own sound recording if content has been uploaded by an end user (for example to a user generated content service).

Such licensees then need to alert the licensor not to try to match such a created sound recording to any other sound recording data the licensor may have received from other licensees as the only purpose of a created sound recording is to enable the provision data about the musical work.
