It's about f**king time.

That was very interesting reading.

And I must say I just love this quote :

Billy Bragg wrote:I don't want to be in a situation where I'm still playing when I'm 70 but you can't get my records, because either they're owned by a label that doesn't exist any more and no-one knows who owns the rights, or there is a label and they're just sitting on them.

I do not want to ever be in the situation where I'm listening to Billy f**king Bragg

SHOCK NEWS
Music industry starts to wake up and smell the coffee.

I thought whole geological epochs would normally be required for this kind of thing.

Hahaha! No argument there. Granted, I use Myspace to spread the word about my own band, and am not worried about losing intellectual ownership right now, because I'm not in a situation where this applies - yet. I'll reconsider it when it comes to that. In the mean time, I use Myspace to my advantage. It would be dman great for all musicians to own all rights to their music. But the industry waking up and smelling the coffee doesn't mean they'll drink it any time soon, mark my words...
