A recent law suit in NY was done by ASCAP. However, the ASCAP lawyer reported the bar owner had been contacted 27 times before it came to him. Thus, nothing was done to comply, which will really make ASCAP, BMI and others mad.
If you have songs that are not purchased, you are potentially at risk. Even one "free" song can be damaging as it proves you are not diligent about insuring you purchased ever song.
A KJ who "buys" 35,000 MP3G songs on a hard drive for $400, should be buried under the jail... IMHO. They know full well the did not buy their songs, and the law will not accept it either.
Songs cost in the range of $1.00 to $5.00. If you are buying for less, seriously question it. The licensing fees are $0.18 to $0.27 per song.
