The Logic Off Topic list

Kool Music said lots of good stuff

Jaysus Kool!

Did you ever think of writing an article about this and sending to some
publication - wired, or some music based publication (non-industry of
course...but then again....).

You seem more than half-way to having figured out a viable alternative to
press(ure)play and its ilk.

Incidentally anybody see this yet?

the plot thickens! If the record companies cant actually prove ownership of
the copyrights it'll set a nice precedent which will hopefully serve to stop
their attempt to get a throttle hold on music creation, promotion,
distribution etc...

What we really need is for EVERY new artist to refuse to sign away the
rights to their music. Like Arlo Guthrie said, if 1 person does it they'll
think hes nuts and throw him out, if two people do it they'll think they're
both nuts and throw them both out, but if EVERYBODY does it they'll realise
its a movement and they wont be able to throw us all out! ;-)

we live in interesting times... (isn't this a chinese curse??)
