Good points Brian, the thought of this being a form of Payola had crossed my mind, and I agree that pay per play has no future, for an arsenal of reasons.

I can't wait to hear your new structure for marketing music, the new music industry is certainly crying for one.

Artist, we could debate the " what if " issues from dawn til dusk, and in the end I think we would both agree to disagree.

Personally I don't believe that pay per play will ever become a standard, therefore there's not much warrant in debating the pro's or con's of it.

I think it would be much more beneficial to concentrate on the things being done today that do work. That's what is really relevant to myself and other songwriters.

I appreciate the intellectual banter, but I think we have wore this one out.
