In France, no matter what you broadcast (remixes, bootlegs, live shows..), you have to get an agreement with several of the rightholders defenders.. That is the SACEM, SCPP, SCPF & so on.. Even if you play unlicenced (or licenced but on other terms than theirs) music, there is some case you still have to pay a fee.. Which is rather irritating obviously.. And it's not cheap also ;) As for mixes or bootlegs, there are even artists who refuses them, in case you might alter how good their music sounds..
