These writers will get flat sums of coin from BMI annually until the- latter, figures out a tech^ nique of paying off. on a perform- ance basis for such music. With a buildup of this, phase of Hi operation, BMI expects to be in a position to advise agencies an a';.producers on their music prob- lems. Burton said that: writing for v,dpix is a new. art arid that vid- p:x. producers were . beginning \ to par more attention to. the;‘ inci- dental music.

TV arranger-com- posers has. shied away.: from the ; American Society ^ of Composers, Authors & . Publishers because ASCAP pays off in fractional . points on such music. BMI, how-, ever, has a more flexible structure and has been able to give better deals to such cleffers. .; Among the TV shows for which BMI has the music rights are “KuklaV Fran & Ollie,” “This Is Your Life,” and “Howdy Dopdy.” LEO FEIST, INC.
