Seems to me, no matter what side of this debate, or what PRO we belong to, the majority are not too stoked at PROs in general.
Now wrap your eyballs around this one concerning my PRO APRA.
Tonight on Channel seven curent affairs it wsa revealed APRA is stopping parents etc from videoing the kids school pantomines without them applying for a licience to do so before hand because the video will most probably have sound recordings of the music used, which schools etc must get a permit to use in their events before hand anyway.
Now how a body supposedly there to represent the writers can't get a system where artists performing the work of opthers in public to pay their dues, can jump on Mum and Dad for collecting memmorbilia of kids that may or may not survive to enjoy them as adults, is totally beyond me.
Thought I would drop this new bit for down here at least on you guys.
If you don't have the pros alresady doing this trick up there maybe you bettre watch out for it..
Yeesh. as if any audio coming out of your average vidio taken in a school hall is ever likely to be played by any but the dotting parent or other close family member anyway.
Regards.
Graham
