How did we ever get to the point where people were not legally permitted to sing a song!! Or if they could sing it, no one was legally permitted to listen!




My answer:

The same way we've arrived at every other situation in which the total population must give up their rights and privileges in order to solve problems created by those among us who abuse those rights and privileges.

This situation is a two-sided coin, as most are.

Consider the other side of this coin as well. That would be the artists, songwriters, recording facilities, producers and other professionals of the business who have incurred the losses of income that the whole thing entails.

The rights of the many always seem to take a hit because of the trespasses of a few.

There is also the perception of a generation that grew up with Commercial Radio who view the music as being "free". They refuse to understand the concept that advertising pays the royalties for the "free" Commercial Radio and TV, along with everything other expense incurred.

Unfortunately, the Internet does not seem able to generate those kind of advertising funds.
