I don't know any of the details of this incident, but I know the business owner has an oblligation to pay performng rights for live and/or recorded material. These fees are determined on a yearly basis and the business is given ample chance to pay this bill either monthly, quarterly or yearly. If he doesnt pay and persists in breaking the law, he can be prosecuted and sued by individual writers and/or publishers
