For the record, college radio stations do pay PRO license fees, but the rate is much lower than for commercial stations. About half I think.

And all the PROs say you can't be a writer member of more than one PRO at a time. You can be a publisher member of more than one though.

"Happy Birthday to you", written by Mildred and Patty Hill, is ASCAP title #380008955. It currently belongs to a division of Warner Communications and as of 1996 was bringing in $2 million per year in royalties. So if you go on stage in one of those places with a "No ASCAP music here" sign be sure and not sing it to the lady in the front row whose birthday it is. [Linked Image]
