         Larrry,

         Maybe you have missed my posts:

         BMI was an invention of the BROADCASTERS who were
                 angry with ASCAP costs back in the 20's and 30's,
         along with their performance restrictions.

          Perhaps someone will provide the history
          of when BMI went from "ally" to "foe."

          I won't make the comment about history
         (or email) repeating itself.
