Laurence Godfrey Quotations

We look for them (music-users) and they come to us. Clients like doctors' offices and retail chains know there is a fee to be paid and contact us.

People who use music have to understand that the music belongs to someone else and they have to pay for the use of the property. The creator deserves fair compensation.

We get a wide range of responses (to our phone inquiries and visits). Some people are surprised there is a fee to pay. Music is a part of the fabric of society and people forget that it is a currency - the finished product of someone's creativity. Others understand that this (music creation) is a business.

There is a temptation to take advantage. Just like any other aspect of society, there are the good (music users) and the bad. There are those who comply and those who resist.
