Just now watching the endless Super Bowl segments and on the computer with the TV on in the room I started to hear the Musical intro to "How Soon Is Now?" on a segment about the history of the 49ers and it played all during the segment in the background.

How is that managed? Does Morrissey allow it? or was it part of the settlement with the former Smiths. I remember it being used in a Mazda commercial years ago also.
