Thread Name: PPl licence returns
Subject: RE: PPl licence returns
They used to advise all their member dance clubs that they needed PPL if they used recorded music, and so did callers who used recordings for bookings open to the public (e.g PTA or Harvest ceilidhs but not Weddings & other private parties). They told us that they had negotiated a cut price, and sent out renewal demands with membership renewals. What they didn't tell us was that they were taking a handling fee and it would have been cheaper to go direct. As many clubs discovered this for themselves EFDSS decided to stop selling PPL. We got a demand from them last year (weren't meeting, didn't pay) but this year we had to go direct to the new combined Pwhatever
