Some of us predicted this more than 15 years ago !

How is a composer to be compensated for the free
trial?
How does the composer know which movies [and soon tv]
are downloaded?
Who keeps track of what is downloaded?

How will PRO's report to composers?
How will composers know they are being paid
accurately?
How will composers know they are to be paid etc. by
Publishers?
Without gross amount at source data on ANY statement..
how will composers know they are not being ripped off?

When US PRO's lose the performing right fight.. what
then?
Even if they win.... how will retro payment be
adjudicated?

Lack of accuracy, tracking, accountability, lack of
PRO fiduciary responsibility will effect your £$pocket
in a few short years !!

I seem to recall the following comments when the AACO
was being formed;

Amsong, 'nothing happens/changes at ASCAP unless we
say so'.
Ed Murphy's sec re inaccuracies etc., 'that's the way
we like it' [HF]

Beware.
