My wife use to DJ and teach Dancing. We had to have a "PRS" [Performing Rights society] licence to cover each venue. Beside paying an annual fee for this licence we would also do quarterly returns to the "PRS".

This consisted of a form that listed all the Artist, the tracks and how many times we had played them.

From this information the "Royalties" would be divided accordingly. :unsure:

Just one word of caution. We used to make our own compilation Cd's for ease of playing. Unless these are done correctly and registered with the "PRS" then strictly speaking your still breaking the law, even if you carry all the master CD's with you to the venue. :(
