Hey all, I've been wondering this for ages.

You know how during every variety show, special news report, or basically anything on Japanese TV with music in the background, the music is from some famous American TV show, movie, album, or pop culture reference?

Do you think these Japanese producers are actually buying the right to use the hundreds of different songs I hear every day? I don't. I doubt anybody outside of Japan is really watching this junk (TV is particularly bad over here), but I've just always wondered.

Insights?
