Bob,
My only real complaints are about;
1. I can't post a cover tune showing how I use a product such as BIAB, RB, Carvin bass, Ampeg Amp etc. I'm not making money from the song just using it to demo a product and how I use it.
2. Charging fees to some small venues forcing them to not have music. That happened to me yesterday. A campground wanted to have me play but the license was too expensive. My music would not be a factor as to staying at this spot. They're full with or without me.And that starving artist never gets a cent of that money.

And no I do not like the present system of royalties. You sell your song for what it's worth at the time. If someone else makes money on it later so be it. They may loose money. Now the band that records that tune & sells the CDs is going to get the profit from those CDs like any other tangible product. That's Capitalism.Sorry my point of view.
