royalty?
last night, i drove my dad to the clinic. while we were there, i saw this note hanging on the medicine counter. it says:
HARAP MAKLUM : Penyiaran TV & radio tidak dapat diadakan ekoran daripada tuntutan bayaran hakcipta dari PPM (Phonographic Performance Malaysia) dan MACP (Music Authors’ Copyright Protection)
i was stunned with this note. now, all clinic can’t switch on their tv or radio for the customer eh? yeah, probably clinic is a public area, but come on lah macp, a clinic? if they want to collect royalty from hypermarket or tapak pesta that play a music on their premises or whatever is okay but to demand from clinic to pay is a bit too much man. not all clinic can afford to pay. melampau sungguh…what say you?
