Sorry, Diane - I confused the issue slightly. When using the CD example, I was trying to say that traditional songs, the sort that would be listed as trad/arr on CDs, are not subject to PRS. Recording rights are different, of course (and I'm not so good with them). But Santa, if a song is traditional, it is not subject to a PRS charge if it is sung. But Diane says there IS a charge if a traditional song is recorded - i bow to her superior knowledge.

Arrangements are not subject to PRS.
