Remember when royalty payments reflected genuine airtime?
9 years of TV music for "Two's Country" on Discovery (Sometimes played 10 hours back to back on the weekend!) doesn't even pay my Council Tax!

If you think i'm just bitching over nothing then think about this. I have a song on BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (Film Italia). My prs cheque for it wouldn't cover a parking ticket!
Go Figure!
So it i'm gonna write next years EUROVISION. That might earn me a FIVER!

All the more reason, folks, to ask for advances when licensing opportunities arise. In many, many cases it's the only real revenue you'll see.

Agreed! But for me (personally) ITV1 is where the money's at right now!
