I sell what I play but have dealt with the music publishing companies for years with our entire shopping complex & other properties. And I do recall researching this in the past and that being the answer. <BR/><BR/>Also a tip for shops, you can purchase royalty free music for a one time large charge (typically $100-$300 depending on the amount of songs you buy) but you don't have to worry about paying ASCAP & BMI fees (which can be thousnds per year).Gina @ Feather Your Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15632582057498221494noreply@blogger.com
