    Default PRS doing themselves no favours

    Dumb. Just plain Dumb.

    I don't know if anyone heard Amy Winehouse discussing music downloads on the Radio yesterday? Apparently she actually supports downloading of free tracks because it brings about a "community feeling". From what I've been told, with the royalties they actually get from selling tracks, it probably doesn't make a lot of difference to her bank balance

    If it was April 1st, I'd think that story was a wind up!

    It is ridiculous, but they have apologised and said they made a big mistake.

    Its all very technical, my understanding is if you sing or play old tunes with no known author they cant do anything

    Blue tail fly or Yellow Rose of Texas anyone?

    I regularly play tunes of this sort ( unknown authors )
