British music association heads through the looking glass, wants to charge for "loud"
 

In what seems to be an out-and-out joke, the UK-based Performing Rights Society has accused a British car repair chain named Kwik-Fit of copyright infringement because mechanics were regularly found to play their radios loud enough for others to overhear the music.According to their claim, music, protected by copyright, could be heard by colleagues and customers. They claim that this represents a "performance" of the music in public and renders the firm guilty of infringing copyright. The group is demanding £200,000 ($407,000 USD) in damages.
