I think I see now why the TV has gone from our local Balti takeaway. They must have had the visit.

(Can someone advise us who it is that licences premises for playing prerecorded music, and TV and radio? Is it the PRS or someone else?
If someone else, then Helen's caller would be a scam.)

I know that for making your own CD, it is the MCPS you have to pay.

Backing tracks for singers must also have a licence for public performance. Note that KARAOKE tracks do NOT have this licence, and if they catch you using them as backing tracks, you will have to pay.

(To make this easy for them to check, KARAOKE tracks fade out, licenced backing tracks do not)

Not easy to keep up with it all, is it?
