Thread Name: PRS hits live streaming
Subject: RE: PRS hits live streaming
I'm not intending to do anything about my own gigs. The songs are all my own, even if they are registered with PRS, and the gigs haven't been generating enough money to make buying a licence make any kind of sense at all. If they come after me, I'll enjoy telling them, and finding out what kind of legal basis they have. Of course it would be good to have some income from the various performers who perform my songs - if that happened, and I received some revenue every time someone sang one of them, I'm sure I'd be much richer. But it doesn't happen, so why go for concerts at a time of lockdown when the live gigs aren't possible? Someone has made a monumental blunder here and it doesn't help anyone who needs helping. By the way, as a PRS member I shall be writing to tell them so.
