My understanding. Where the program is a BBC originated even such as a Panel show, drama or a live performance such a concert, in studio or Proms - BBC makes sure beforehand it has agreed all the rights to broadcast (live & repeats) with the performers. Sports events etc which are not put on by BBC and so BBC have to buy the rights and accept restrictions by event organiser. Others rights such as from composers - often don't apply to R3 which has a lot classical or are negotiated as part of the event or normal Performing Right fees. R4 content is mainly contemporary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114776 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
