Under current legislation any business that plays music which can be heard by staff or members of the public must pay the Performing Rights Society (PRS) a fee for the privilege. If agreed, non-profit bodies with incomes of less than £20,000 could be exempted or royalties for music played may be charged at an "equitable" rate. According to the NME, over half a million businesses in the UK are playing music illegally.
