Does the amendment change the applicability of the termination right to sound recordings?
No. Sound recordings have always been eligible for work made for hire status, and when agreed to be so in writing, are works made for hire. Thus, the clarifying amendment specifically listing sound recordings as eligible for work made for hire status when such status is agreed to by the contracting parties does not change the law.
