bob,

I'd rather see them, or their families, get the money than have the venues erode the current performance rights.

From what I understand, The problem is that the writer does not receive his PRO money from the "play log" at the live performances. I agree that the PRO money is due, but the current tracking methods doesn't benefit the writer whose songs are performed at these live venues. You could make a case that the songs (tracked by current methods) are proportionally equivelent to the live "plays", but I remain unconvinced.
