I've heard this from some other folks.  I can say that
it took numerous phone calls, each more frustrated
than the last, before BMI called me back about
anything.

For those who are also considering which org to use,
ASCAP's contract runs one year, BMI is two, and SESAC
is three.  ASCAP is owned and governed by writers,
musicians, and publishers while BMI is run by
broadcast industry folk.  

I'm guessing they all pay out roughly the same, except
SESAC gives you some money up front.  I could be wrong
about that part.

There was a workshop on this last week at BCHQ, and
I'm very sorry I missed it.
