"Swindon bobbies have been banned from listening to #music after Wiltshire Police refused to continue paying the licence fee to the Performing Rights Society. The PRS is responsible for collecting licence fees from music users and apportioning royalties between songwriters and composers. The force is to pay GBP32,000 to the society, backdated from June 2007. In a letter to officers and staff, Wiltshire Chief Constable Brian Moore said he felt the public money Wiltshire constabulary would be forced to pay in the future would be better spent on policing."
