Subject: Re: [newmellotrongroup] Ethical Issue

The guy is jealous of Mike’s talent, and that sure doesn’t give him (the guy in question)the right to use Mike’s fine work without permission or compensation.
Regarding the “pound sand” comment don’t forget the grade school lesson of “sticks and stones”.

I consider the source and forget it.
Insults aren’t worth processing.

If the work/performance is solely your own, tell them to pound sand. If it is not then the ethical issues become shared. My opinion.

I've been contacted by someone who wants to use my music on one of his YouTube videos.  Normally I say 'fair enough' and only ask that I am credited, but this thing there is a slight difference.

The guy is an advocate of views I find ethically repugnant.  His stock credit does say that others whose work is credited in his videos do not necessarily agree with his views, etc, but somehow that doesn't seem enough.

Do you think I ought to limit who can use what I produce on the basis of what they are saying?
