      Just to say that all of this is fascinating.

        it does sound like there was some rather shrewd business going on here to say the least.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if all of the CBS/Entercom stations got the RW jingles for free, or at least got a significant bargain out of it.

        It’s probably best if comments like this stay away from the forums as that’s quite an accusation.

          It’s happened over here. 20 years ago a commercial station I used to work for gained a new jingle pack from one of the biggest UK jingle companies of the day in similar circumstances. We didn’t ask for the jingles, but as we had them for free of course we used them!

            PK, even if the station didn’t “pay” for the production of package per se, they’d still surely “pay” on the airplay royalties etc
            on any cut every time it/they were played out on air?

              Is that how it works overseas? Here in the US, we pay for the initial production and then yearly relicensing fees directly to the jingle company. I’m not aware of any “airplay royalties” such as those paid to ASCAP or BMI, although I could be wrong…

                Iain is correct, making payment for all music we play on air as we do over here, stations do pay via PRS, MCPS and PPL, even with jingles and production music.
