Targeting Restaurants and Cafes for providing Ambience

The Phonographic Performance Company of Australia, has begun targeting cafes and restaurants with a new, raised tariff for providing piped our radio music to the customers.

Maybe they haven't heard that there is a recession on, or that restaurants and cafe's are doing it particularly tough. Especially for the FREE to AIR radio broadcasts the radio stations have already paid the copyright fees.

In my opinion they are double dipping and riding roughshod over an industry that is already in crisis.

Shame on them!
