Legal/illegal

Jim
I'm not questioning the lergality of using tracks for a paid performance, i fully understand that. My question is why doesn't a live band (no tracks)have to abide by the same rules that those of us who use tracks do. It apears to be an acceptable practice that a band can play any copyrighted music on the market and the only requirement is the club/loounge etc. pay the royalty fees to BMI/ASCAP. Doesn't seem to be much different to me.
