yep... I’m an ASCAP member... this is ridiculous. I made some good money in the 1980s for airplay.. on FM radio and television.. but having a bar pay royalties? don’t agree with that. I don’t condone it... and I plan on sending off an email to ASCAP, and Warners. bars will just stop playing music... and we’ll have all sports all the time... which we basically already have , in bars.
with streaming... I get pennies for streaming royalities.. last check I received was 5 cents... cost more to print the check.
only people making money on streaming are those that have millions upon millions of streams... Adelle comes to mind.
