If you're not, the onus is on you to prove somehow that your music is being played somewhere. All of my material is licensed through BMI, but since 1994 I have never seen a cent in royalries. Plus, I don't think the money restaurants pay covers airplay on radio or television. Those media pay their own share of fees and must turn in lists periodically so that statisticians can determine how much "Bridge Over Troubled Water" should get this year.

For the record, the money is that ASCAP and the other agencies collects is also for airplay on the radio, and they both have different ways of the checking what is being played.

Thanks Ron. For the record: In the US: ASCAP, BMI, etc. have managed to get laws passed that require any restaurant, pub / bar, theatre, public building, etc. ad nauseum, that plays any kind of music whatsoever in it's building(s), to pay them an annual fee for the privilege of playing said music. Businesses cannot operate (legally) without paying these fees. These fees are hundreds of dollars per year per business, multiplied by how many restaurants, etc. in the US?? This supposedly covers the singing of Happy Birthday at a party, the playing of "1001 Strings" doing "In My Life", etc., etc. It's a racket (or is that "raquet"?). So - when you sing "Hey Jude" or "Why Don't We Do It In The Road?" in the mens' room, it's covered ... at least in the US.

IMHO A lute-tablature transcription will not convince a judge that it is a copy of modern printed sheet-music. He will compare the two and say, 'It looks nothing like it'. Case dismissed. How will a public performance be judged in court against a copyrighted song? Will the judge listen to the lute-player and the infringed recording in court? Simply whistling tunes whilst walking down the street will infringe copyrights. - Mind you, I have heard some whistlers that want locking up! IMHO Copyrighted music should ONLY require the owner's approval when a recording is made to be marketed, not before. Public performance alone will not count. This would remove all the stupid bureaucracy.

I have a book somewhere detailing how a lot of songwriters/groups were robbed. Not more than 30 minutes ago I heard in a documentary about the Beatles that their share of something (was it the movie Hard Days Night or a number one record?, I've already forgotten, but the point was made) was 800 pounds each. They were appalled when they found out how much more money the Stones were making. Probably had a lot to do with their split. Don't want to take the thread off on a tangent, but the rich-rocker image is greatly overrated. So many of those famous groups didn't make diddly squat until the 3rd or 4th album when they had some bargaining clout. The good news is, I don't think you have to worry about most of the lute repertoire.

*LOL* Sending messages to ASCAP and Time Warner each time you hear someone singing "Happy Birthday" surely will be a good way to show your respect for the copyright. I have dealt with GEMA before - I organized a recital for a visiting american lute player. Although not one single protected work has been performed GEMA asked for more than 300 bucks. (actually illegal IMO but the process risk has been to high. Getting your right is something you have been able to affort) Income has been less than 100 bucks. Needless to say that I never arranged a recital by myself again. Thomas Am 21.10.2010 13:55, schrieb R.

What occurs to me in all of this is just how far from the spirit of the law, the letter of the law has gone. The Humble rockers who wrote the beautiful song are way out of it - We're now talking about the enrichment of suits and bean-counters. There seems to be a misalignment of the universe when the guy delivering the ink cartridge to write the contract makes more than the composer.
