21. I thought ASCAP
...made the establishment pay for mixed tapes and recording. That's the way it happened at a restaurant I worked at in the eighties. The ASCAP dude said that store-bought recordings were fine because the record companies artists got their money, but home-mix tapes were not ok. They were also cool with the playing of radio stations. Did something change since the 1980's?

As for CD burners, I believe there's already a precedent set from the era of the tape recorder - favoring the home tapist.
