    Keith Gilbert, PRS Performance Sales Director said: "Royalties are crucial – they keep songwriters and musicians writing more music. And royalties are paid by everyone that plays music in public.


    Yeah, I'm sure that's the reason mate..sure it is.
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
    Then why call him God? - Epicurus

      $114 (well, actually US dollars probably $170 or so) isn't even that much money when you're talking about a nationwide organization. These guys aren't after the money. They're just totally crazy.

        The PRS is a not-for-profit organisation.
        One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

          this is just insane

          The PRS is a not-for-profit organisation.
          the people they are representing are for profit
          To us, it is the BEAST.

            Do the customers get paid for trying out an instrument? If not what is the beef?

              Well, I wonder, in an electronics shop, if they demonstrate a DVD or HDTV with, say, The Two Towers, do they pay royalties to the film company?

              And how are going to prove, that the riff played was indeed the opening of Stairway to Heaven, instead of random tunes? Say it's not very well played, even?
