In one corner - the pious fine citizen of society strictly adhering to the letter of the law; on the other side - a dude who stands up for the "ordinary guy's" point of view, not so worked-up over such matters. It's a wonderful tussle. Gotta love Usenet! :) Your right, it is a pretty humorous thread! Can't get excited or worked up over a few pennies of copyright royalties! On usenet, you survive by your wits only, nothing else matters! ;-) On uk.music.misc we are used to politeness and helpfulness.

I consider, sir, that you are being abusive. It is possibly because of the cross-posting going on here. Quite possibly. However you must also consider I maybe being abusive because you're a petty arsehole who has no respect for the dead, or you're just another english fukhed. n the forum I am visiting (uk.music.misc) we tend to be polite. Idiots tend to be that way. The point is not what the cost is, but what the right thing to do is. Don't worry you money grubbing little prick, we wouldn't think of screwing you out of your 1/10th of one percent royalties. Seems I've found a new group to set straight. I'll be joining rec.englishfaggotts.morons.UK real soon. |

OK, not involved in the 'digitisation' of music as such, but you can still be numbered among those who are generally involved with music, computers and the Internet for financial gain. AFAIC the music for my partner's mum's funeral (having been ordered and paid for and which may yet turn up in time, according the Amazon's tracking information) is 'licensed'. Whether or not the church and/or FD is licensed to broadcast it to a limited audience (and whether or not either of them raise that issue) remains to be seen. Where does this end? - Do I need a broadcast license to play a piece of music to friends and members of my own family (for free) anywhere else other than in a church? (Oil rigs and prisons, hopefully, not likely to be included in the forseeable future....)
