I thought music was basically use what you like but pay royalties when you do, unlike TV shows where you have to buy rights in advance.

I know that commercial premises pay PPL and PRS fees to cover all music played and that it isn't done on a per track basis.

I miss Classic Coronation Street too.

The BBC and other major broadcasters have a blanket licence with PRS / PPL / MCPS which allow them to use almost everything without needing approval.
