^ Is this guy serious?

This isn't anything new. That's where Muzak came from. I knew someone who worked for them and explained it to me 20 years ago.

Both. A restaurant or bar can't legally play the radio. We use Dmx Pandora. $25 month

I'm having problems accessing some youtube videos because of copyright violations. There is at least one of my videos that i cant watch anymore because of that copyright bullshit. The video has music playing from 97.1 and it was recorded 12 years ago. BS.

The ones who have been sued usually end up with one of those internet jukebox things that charge $1 per song. Even playing hold music will get you in trouble since it's a "performance".
