Paying for a license gives you the rights to PERFORM a song. Ownership of the writing credit does not transfer.

And this is not MY interpretation of anything. It is simply was the forum rule says.

Also note that at no time did I ever mention anybody's name. I simply asked that PG step in and either enforce their rule or remove it.
