SoundExchange and Canada's AVLA are collecting. And despite the negative 
press on SoundExchange for apparently not being able to "find" artists, they 
pay quarterly.....just received a sizeable cheque for Carpet Frogs airplay 
from various websources dating back 7 years. The process is new and being
