I've checked with a few jukebox suppliers and they say the onus is on the premises to pay it! Now if my jukebox burns the place down thats a difference story! :lol :lol
grantspain:

To the best of my knowledge the position in Ireland is that the premises pays an annual fee to IMRO if music is to be played on a commercial premises. You'll see the IRMO sticker on the windows of everything from barbers to clubs. I think it falls under IRMAs remit if theres pirated music being payed on the premises.

I haven't decided on anything! Im jsut trying to figure it all out. I found loads of different types, but I have no idea what I'm looking for. Presumably some of them can output a pulse etc to a PC, but how I would configure this to any jukebox software is the confusing bit.

depends largely on the software...
http://coin-acceptor.com/
can plug directly into the com ports or into USB but your software must be able to read the port to get the coinage to recieve it.
OR
you can hack a keyboard or keyboard interface such as the I-PAC http://www.ultimarc.com/ipac1.html then just configure you jukebox program to add a credit using the "B" button or whatever one you hack into. then just have your coin switch "press" the "B" button to issue the credit when the coin is inserted.
ugh i feel sick all of a sudden... :embarassed:
