endorphine machine used on tv... do tv shows have to buy the rights to use an artist's song during the show??
it's a rerun but prince's "endorphine machine" was just the opener to csi miami including the end segue framing that annoying red head walking into the shot | |

The rights holder will therefore usually receive payment for use. The ASCAP article below explains that you will normally obtain clearance through licence to use of all or part of a master sound recording. There is also a synchronisation right - effectively the rights holder licences the use of the recording in association with the broadcast image. http://www.ascap.com/filmtv/faq.html http://en.wikipedia.org/w..._Licensing .
