PRS, PPL music

[Dogbash]

I have around 10 warehouse staff who listen to the radio and 4 office staff who do the same.

I already pay something like £300 per year to PRS for music. I had a call yesterday of PPL for music and now they are asking for £800 per year.

Does anyone else pay this? Trying to figure out whether its a legal requirement that I pay it or not.

Cheers

I think so

Well we pay both.

we pay both aswell :-(

[PWE]

I have to pay both for a retail shop.
Combined is far less though. under £300
Might be worth checking that your criteria is fitting to what they're charging you for !

Bin the radio

Can you ask which music they cover so you don't have to pay the PPL?

What I really object to is that they pay their CEO around £700k a year.

Don't do any of those. I live in a teepee.

Well unless you are doing folk performances to crowds out of your teepee you won't need a music licence either - so the worlds still all good.
