MP3.com, the Internet music company that was found by a federal judge to be violating copyrights, said it reached a licensing agreement with one of the two major U.S. organizations that collect music royalty payments.

The licensing agreement with Broadcast Music (BMI) lets MP3.com play BMI's 4.5 million compositions on its Web site. BMI represents more than 140,000 U.S. songwriters and composers and more than 60,000 U.S. publishers.
