Can licensing companies like ascap and bmi charge restaurants for using music from radio and tv?
Anyone who plays music in a public place for profit is subject to the fees that ASCAP and BMI charge for this use. If you use a radio or TV, it is fair to assume that some of the music is under copyright. The rights organizations distribute the money annually to the composers, authors and publishers, money that is due to them because the music is copyrighted. There are no fees for music in the public domain. The rights organizations set standard fees for unlimited use, and then they distribute the money to the recipients according to a formula based on how many copyrights they hold. This is a lot simpler than trying to calculate how many times each song is played.
