What occurs to me in all of this is just how far from the spirit of the law,
the letter of the law has gone. The Humble rockers who wrote the beautiful
song are way out of it - We're now talking about the enrichment of suits and
bean-counters. There seems to be a misalignment of the universe when the guy
delivering the ink cartridge to write the contract makes more than the
composer.
There should be a way to protect the rights of artists - not middle-men.
