Forwarding a question asked of me.
What are the licensing requirements for music in podcasts? I assume it
would be similar to broadcast (BMI, ASCAP stuff).
The example given is a church podcasting their service including the
copyrighted anthems.
Depends on who owns the copywrite. If its "commerical" music then you
need to pay the ASCAP/BMI fees. Howver there are plenty of sources of
independent music you can play on podcasts. The one I use all the
time is http://music.podshow.com
This is not pre-recorded music. The church uses copyighted sheet music for
their live-performance anthems and service music.
