Music licensing organisation chasing up businesses

A music licensing organisation is chasing up hundreds of businesses a week asking them to pay-up for the tunes they are using, so that artists get what they are owed. A Hawkes Bay florist told Checkpoint she was called by One Music to see if she was paying licence fees, which she was not. Despite only listening to the radio on her phone out the back of her shop, the music licensing organisation told her to buy a licence or turn the music off. Onemusic Director, Greer Davies spoke to Lisa Owen.
