Here in the UK, Sam smith's brewery of Tadcaster that owns a few hundred pubs around the country decided that they no longer wished to pay PRS and took all music out of their pubs. Whilst this may have had some beneficial effect in removing irritating background music it also resulted in the death of all live music in those pubs. In Beverley (Yorkshire) the folk club of 30 years standing had to move out as did the jazz club and the regular acoustic session - all from one pub!
