<p>Also joining the president were Mike Love of the Beach Boys, singer Sam Moore and the Christian group MercyMe. The legislation creates a new independent entity that will license songs to companies that play music online.</p>
<p>The non-profit collective will then pay songwriters, including those who wrote pre-1970s classics before music copyrights protected their work.- Press Association</p>
