@psyjunta The principle of copyright is not the issue, but the length of term.

[OpenRightsGroup]

That's not correct, the legislation tabled is clearly retroactive and aimed at keeping 60s back catalogues under major label's control

Artist copy all the time, some even call this inspiration. we should be freely mixing and remixing eachothers work without any copyright problems. These rules are devastating for creativity.

At 1:53 to be fair the people making the CD's, extracting the crude oil to make the plastic to make the CD and covers, the assembly maintainers, programmers (IE: recorders, adds the WMG or whatever label binary code to identify it as a WMG CD no matter what name you give the file extension), and custodians are covered in that 90%. However a good portion of that 90% still goes to overpaid executives.

Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use
