I don't think The ASCAP/BMI royalty collector dudes get their panties in a bunch over "mom 'n' pop" places, they mostly keep track of chains, and they only collect a few cents a play in those cases. Your Pizza bros are remembering those fiasco-ass downloading trials and overreacting. Tell 'em to call ASCAP if they're really that worried.
Also, Focus:


:Management at the pizza place I work out freaks out every time someone plays a cd in the store, because they claim they're running the real risk of a $10,000 (per artist played) fine at the hands of the music industry. Is there any truth to this? has anyone ever heard of a store getting $10.000 sucked out of them by a record company because they were playing a cd from home on the p.a.? Your thoughts, please.
