Yeah - what they DON'T tell you is that there's a MINIMUM FEE of 
$25,000/yr, regardless...

Believe me, I looked into it

Some deal...

MANY webcasters will either ignore (on-line pirate; Yo Ho Ho and a 
torrent of bits!) SoundExchange - and by extension, ASCAP, BMI, and 
SESAC - or go silent.

Which is too bad - and broadcast radio seems to be headed that way; even 
though the Performance royalty seems dead for THIS session...
