As a musician sometimes the bar pays the ASCAP fees
sometimes they
don't but at least there is a way to compensate the song copyright
owner when a band plays a cover song on stage at a bar. I wonder if
some sort of ASCAP for out of print manuals could work....this way
owners could register their manuals and make it public where to send
fees AND the fees would be low enough that people would not mind
paying them. This puts some responsibility on the manual owner to
make their claim I suppose. Then you have international vs. domestic
copyright, etc.
...but unlike with ASCAP, the creator of the manual would actually see
some money? ;)
