After performance royalty deals with eleven indie labels (including Big Machine, home of Taylor Swift), Clear Channel will pay performance royalties for plays of Fleetwood Mac's new EP "Extend Play" on their 850 stations, I presume mostly their adult contemporary stations (since their classic rock and oldies stations won't play new cuts and Mac is too wimpy for their rock stations that play current music--however, considering that for the most part AC stations have stopped playing 70s music and are a lot more uptempo and dance-heavy than they used to be, do they really want new Fleetwood Mac music?):
