jan 1, 1956 - ASCAP - BMI Controversy

Description:

ASCAP links rock music to rise of BMI (looser publishing-rights organization) --> claims BMI was manipulating public taste by exercising outsized influence in broadcast media
- case was insane? all radio and TV broadcasters had licences with both ASCAP and BMI (if anything, ASCAP cornered the market prior to BMI even existing)
