[asterisk-users] On-Hold Music

[Danny Nicholas]

Thanks??? The easiest "legal" option seems to be to purchase individually
licensed "on-hold tracks" for $10-99 US per pop.  Ouch! Or, you can spend
$750 or so US per year for the 3 "musketeers" license.

And there is also ASCAP:  American Society of Composers, Authors and
Publishers.

Also a smaller than either group: SESAC.

The answer is, as long as the music publisher for each piece of music has an
agreement with BMI to license their music, yes.  You can verify each
individual title here:
