In article <8906290314.AA07484@gaffa.mit.edu> you write:
                                                 ...I used to be a
DJ on a major college radio station and we payed nothing to no one.

Well, there are two possibilities:

1.  The ASCAP, BMI, and SECAM licensing fees were paid by the COLLEGE
instead of the radio station as a part of a SITE license.  This is legal.

2.  Your station was breaking the law.   Non-profit, non-commercial,
educational radio statios still have to pay licensing fees.

Note: I would have posted this publicly, but our site's PNEWS has somehow
become fouled!  I don't mind if you re-direct this mailing to r.m.gaffa.
