TVs. in pubs

[sprayer]

The landlord of my local (not very big, backstreet pub) has just put in sky tv at a cost of �800. per month, since having it installed he has now been told by a local
''Know All'' that as you can get radio music channels on sky he will require a PPL (phonographic performance licence) and ALSO a PRS licence (performing rights licence) , can anybody tell me if this is correct ?

If you play recorded music or music videos in public, or broadcast them (or copy them in order to do so) in the UK, you will be infringing copyright unless you are appropriately licensed by PPL.
