The rules regarding a TV news station having a snippet of music in the background as part of news coverage is vastly different than someone using the music to promote their commercial enterprise without having a license or paying royalties.
Put another way, the news station can not use 10 seconds of a copyrighted song as their nightly lead in.
It was asked earlier, and you ducked it, but what exactly is your role with AmpLand?
