WINO-FM Has the Legal Rights to Play All the Music

WINO-FM has the legal rights to play all the music in the ASCAP and BMI libraries because it pays for blanket agreements with each company. The radio station's problem though is that it doesn't have a lot of music it would like to have. Since it pays for the licensing, it can legally copy music brought to the station by its DJs, who legally bought the CDs at a local music store, to improve its collection, provided the music is licensed by ASCAP or BMI.
