Mancity needs to pass some of that suck over to united imo.

i hope you are levelling he constantly sucks their balls. typical manc view.

also what he said was hilarious and while i dislike both him ans keys, it was supposed to be private and if anyone should be sacked it is the audio producers who didnt turn the sound down.

also LOL women lineman. another case of women getting all the perks (like in poker) when they will never make up a significant proportion of the players/fanbase to justify it.

i can forsee any women linesman from now on taking some abuse from the stands.

he should be fired because he's a useless tool.

omg i've said it before. gray is such an anti-utd commentator - ireally don't know how he can be seen otherwise. and i said to my gf 5 minutes ago i hope he gets super-sacked. don;t care about hairy hands keyes.

and that lineswoman;s onside decision was spot on. sure she's going to **** up at some point like every other official but it;s not because she has a pair of tits. unless they're massive and get in her line of sight obv.

in other news i had some games to trade in so bought nfs hot pursuit (meh), and saw the 2 unchartered games in the previously owned section. only played the first one so far but it's fantastic.

Gray and that other guy just exposed themselves as sexist neanderthals. Off you go to some stupid Sky1 show fellas. As if it isn't hard enough to convince the womens that the Sky Sports is a human right without those two plonkers making it harder.

Uncharted is pretty awesome.

I got the first with my PS3 when I bought it and decided to give the second to my brother last year for christmas. I had to go back a couple of days later and buy a new one because I opened the first I bought and kept it for my self.

FML my boss got a letter from some dumb goverment thing or something saying that by law if you want to listen to a radio at work you need to get a license - WTF??????

so you guessed it, instead of getting said license we are now banned from playing a radio, started at like 4pm today and it was the longest hour iv ever had at work. This week is going to suck

also - the gay law also includes mp3 players and cd players.
01-25-2011 , 05:40 PM
Its true.

Unenforceable garbage imo.
01-25-2011 , 06:22 PM
isn't it the broadcasting companys job to pay that license? The radio are surely required to pay for the use of an artists music so how can you be charged considering the artist have alreasy been paid?

You would think so, wouldn't you ?

Performing Rights Society - they have some ancient thing going on from the first days of radio.

It all makes no sense ....

phew, blackpool had me worried.

I actually had a GF who worked for the PRS back in the '80s.

It always has been that restaurants, shops and other businesses where radio/music add to the ambiance had to pay a license fee. And imo thats not unreasonable since the artists work is adding value to the business. You might chose to shop at Tesco instead of Sainsbury's if the music there sucked.

But charging a fee at a business where the public rarely if ever visit is ridiculous.

Oh and personal radios/MP3 players are OK ...

Personal Portable Devices - Where music is only used in the workplace by individual employees or workers solely by means of Personal Portable Devices (such as MP3 players) with headphones. Any music must only be audible to the employee or worker to whom the Personal Portable Device belongs through a headset attached to that device and not to any other individual in the workplace.
So everyone can listen to the same radio station on their own personal radio, but put a boombox in the corner of the workshop and you owe a fee

That's how I thought it were. Surely a welding shop gains nothing by having Crazyfool listen to flashdance all day.

As someone who used to work in the music industry, the PRS income is quite frequently the only money an artist will see (as it now includes the mechanicals, which used to be managed by the MCPS), as most record deals are very very heavily slanted towards the record label. The PRS income is the money that puts food on the table for a hell of a lot or artists/bands who don't become the next big thing.

I agree that it's anal, but tbh, a PRS licence isn't that much, and you could probably take a whipround from the guys at work to buy one yourself. The PRS are required to maximise the income for it's clients (the Musicians), and it's legally inforcable, but I haven't heard of a case of the PRS taking a situation like your to court, EVER! However, clubs/restaurants and bars are reqularly prosecuted.

Anyway, how many times can you listen to flashdance during a day without going insane?

Too late for the crazyfoal - can only go insane once.

yeah if it was up to me id play the radio anyway, they wont buy a license because

a. they are too stingy
b. they think they will get backdated a few years or something

apparently a few local businesses have got fined for this and that has scared or management, and they are too stubborn to accept the fact that the local businesses were shops and hairdressers etc.

I understand that some artists get shafted with deals but why should i suffer due to it, records companies should pay them more or the radio station should pay.

I should also be allowed to use my iPod connected to a radio, i have bought and paid for my songs, why should anyone be charged to play them. im thinking of getting a cheap mp3 player and using it. Today sucked with no music. and earphones would be fine because im meant to use earplugs anyway
01-26-2011 , 03:11 PM
tl:dr FU PRS


also i hear that the penalty decision last night was a ****ing disgrace. Havent seen it yet but would love to. Im reserving judgement atm but my guess is i will once again be pissed at united being allowed 12 men on the pitch as per usual
