Sorry for the typos below........... it's around 3.00am and I have  
toothache ;-)

I also just rec'd a note form one of my Library Publishers.

2 NATIONAL campaigns by the Culligan water company, my  
music.......... is there a paper-trail?
Is there a media buy-out log.......... apparently not.
Until 'pushed' for data which was not on the statement, the user of  
the music was 'unknown'............ !!

For sure the PRO's do a really lousy job of finding music to pay, but  
it isn't always their fault !!

Anyone know what the success rate for surveys etc is via the PRO's in  
the EU?
