No Polish music on RMF FM, Radio Zet and 100 local stations last

Unlike most European countries, Poland allows composers, performers and producers to be associated in more than one union. This is a source of great chaos, as several organizations demand royalty money from radio stations, which cannot bear that kind of a financial burden. "If we were to meet the current demands of the unions, we would be paying a lot more than radio stations in the West,"said the organizer of the protest, Ireneusz Iwanski. The radio stations want to pay no more than 7% of their revenues in royalties. (Rzeczpospolita, Nov. 21-22, page 1)
