Copywrite Royalitys Board

[Patrick Hand]

I listen to an internet radio station....

it plays Pyrate music..... cool

but from what I understand.....someone wants to make them pay a lot of money to keep broadcasting..... but a lot more than a radio station or any broadcaster has to pay.....

Basicly... someone wants to put internet stations outta business...( well they can't put them outta bussiness... they just send the signil to another country... and then it's sent from there.... unfortunatly.. then the musicians don't get any royalitys at all,.......that sux........

I don't understand much of this...... but something about it don't sound fare....

Someone wants to stop a competitor, that is doing well (and or better than thay can do)......

I'm not going to worry too much about this... I kinda know that it will pass.... money wins.....then I will pick it up from Korea ..... but like I typed... it sux that the artist then will get paid nothing for thier works or music.... (not that they get much now........the Industry takes most of it..... and who do you think is opposed to the internet music?)

Patrick..artist these days make far more money from merchandising than ticket sales. They should recieve something for ther music, but then wot are the advertisers payin for? Ah the almighty dollar an those who have it (Note: sadly.. ain't one of em)

Why do I pay $65 a month for cable and have to endure 25 minutes plus of commercials to watch a movie? Why do we pay so much to go see a movie that we almost have to finance it, then have to sit through commercials in a theater? Do I go out to movies often anymore? ..nope.

Do I have a lot of MP-3's ...heh thanks internet.

Do I feel guilty? you do the math.
