AFTRA is a union representing announcers and air talent. It has nothing to do with playing a song. In the US, the artist is not compensated for Analog broadcast of music. Composers and Authors are, via blanket collection agencies ASCAP, BMI and SESAC. Each charges radio and TV stations (and even web streamers) a fee in proportion to station size for usage of the music in the catalogs they represent. In the case of the FCC vs. George Mayoral, Alfredo Ramirez de Arellano, et. al., the issue was rebroadcast without authorization of the program content of another radio station. The FCC does not have jurisdiction on music license issues. |

Composers and Authors are, via blanket collection agencies ASCAP, BMI and SESAC. Each charges radio and TV stations (and even web streamers) a fee in proportion to station size for usage of the music in the catalogs they represent. During my days in the broadcast field (late 1950s), periodically a day's play list would be perused and then assessments made and distributed to the above according to what was played. This was a convenient averaging out system that apparently worked well for all concerned. Bill, K5BY SE Texas |
