Also, from reading the above, if a full PRS licence for somewhere like Nellies is £1000 a year........that amounts to less than 1p on the cost of a drink if the pub sells 300 drinks a day. Nellies must sell at least that much I would have thought. 1p on the cost of a pint wouldnt loose Nellies a single customer I am sure......not when pint of Bitter is only £1.27 to start with anyway! But banning music will loose them many scores of customers throughout the year......of that I am also sure, let alone the loss of good will and the bad publicity.......I`m afraid it just doesnt add up to me.
