It applies to copyrighted music, its the same sort of thing you need if you run a club that plays music, or shopping mall or whatever. Its not new and when similar decision on fee's was made in regards to US internet radio, there were some who said it was too much and was killing net radio.
I dont know how true it is, I just know it applies to all the usual mainstream copyrighted stuff, and so the easierst way round it is not to use copyrighted works. Personally I would be really happy if there was a simialr thing for online video, because it means for a price, people could easily use copyrighted stuff in their shows, and actually have the proper right to do so,m thus removing much grey. Right now we already assume that we dont have the right to do that (apart from fair use stuff), and so such a licence would be giving us an extra freedom that would cost money, as opposed to applying a cost to something we could already legitimately do for free.
