Re: Your hold music. You can blame SOCAN for the demise of the cool music. »www.socan.ca/tariff/SOC_11007_Ta···LISH_15B. It gets expensive really quick if a company has a lot of lines.
I use the Direct forum for everything so I don't have to wait on hold. |

| Informative link, thanks. I never really knew of the costs until now. Yikes! What about simply using the radio on hold instead? |

Which is actually against socan rules as well technically.
XM/Sirius offers a service for businesses that covers copyrights, as it's part of the bill payment. It's only 35 bucks. |

I doubt it. it's a small company.
And if they do, i'll just stream some american stream off the net. SOCAN can suck it then.

Then SOCAN may be paying you a visit through their lawyers. The same thing happened to me when I was setting up a plant 15 years ago.
We switched to Public Domain music ASAP.
