Bill, the reason no one here can further work with you on this is
simply that you have 75% of your "facts" wrong, so it's a dead end.
The pizza guy is lying to your friend, or he is being misunderstood.
Your friend is giving you way wrong information regarding the way BMI
works, or maybe he is giving you a good explanation and you're not
accepting the info properly. *Whatever the reason, until you stop
insisting that 2 + 2 = 5 and that the moon is made of green cheese not
only will you get no help here but no one will take you seriously.

Perhaps so. Here is a URL of some interesting music copyright legal cases..
They neither reinforce my perspective nor yours,

You should read the article more carefully. It clearly
reinforces the perspectivse of vdubreeze, and everyone
else who has stated that you have your facts wrong.
There are numerous statements in the article that
directly contradict your hallucinations and bizarre fake
copyright information.

For instance, the duration of copyrights, the role of
BMI, and whether purchase of the sheet music entitles
you to perform a copyrighted work for the customers
at a commercial establishment. For starters.

You should read and understand this article. It would
be a good first step at correcting your gross misunderstanding
of copyrights and performance rights. But somehow I suspect
that you'll just keep kicking and screaming, because you
obviously prefer whining to understanding and resolving the
issues about which you whine.
