I think the recording industry is trying to purchase (or has recently purchased) a law that satisfies this insistence. The gist I got was that the law would make all work they publish will be considered a work for hire. This it would be impossible to publish your own recordings through a record company without effectively assigning the copyright to that record company. -- Brian Ristuccia [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
