In addition to this, there's lots of other annoying little requirements:

Once a quarter, we have to send them a report of '''every''' track we've played, including the record label and distributor, as well as some complicated statistics involving listener-hours and performances by territory. The main thing you can do to help with this is do what your contract says - only play music via BAPS. In addition to this, there's lots of other annoying little requirements:
