To be a millionaire you have to posses a lot of money, but to be a BMI (broadcast music incorporated the folks that collect the royalty fees for the songwriters) MillionAir you have to be a very successful songwriter like Ronnie Dunn.

What is meant by “MillionAir”? Well, a songwriter has to have had his or her songs receive over one million plays over the radio or TV. BMI recently honored country music’s most successful songwriter, Ronnie Dunn, with their multiple MillionAir award at a special reception in Nashville Tennessee.
