I could see how a certain song could influence a certain scene. Music can evoke all kinds of emotion and a particular song could have the particular emotion you are needing to portrait in your scene. Alternatively, you might just need a particular style of music to set the mood, rather than a well known track, in which you could save money by using a lesser known artist.

I like how they talk about when it's a good idea to get brand name music, and when it isn't such a good idea.

Such a long process to do all these things for one seen and so expensive

these people must be very good at what they do to talk about it with such ease! They also must be very good at handling stressful situations.

Their jobs sound kind of complicated. I think having to hire somebody to teach actors how to play instraments is a good idea to promote songs.
