Well, there was a news story I read on one of the major news outlets that a lot of people think the recording industry is going to go belly-up, with major companies folding in the next few months.
They deserve it. |

They do deserve it. When you go after someone on youtube dancing to a popular song or girl scouts singing around a campfire you've passed anything resembling sanity. it is time to learn a simple phrase "Who cares?" Some 12 year olds are singing out song on youtube? Who cares?

One of the positive aspects of Glee is that it has turned my daughter onto some excellent classic rock and pop. She's gone out and purchased the original artist's version to at least a dozen songs. At $0.89 to $0.99 per song that isn't much but it's more than would have been sold without Glee.

If I read this, from ASCAP, the rehearsals and the lessons would be exempt, but the actual competitions might not be.
2. What is a public performance?
A public performance is one that occurs either in a public place or any place where people gather (other than a small circle of a family or its social acquaintances.) A public performance is also one that is transmitted to the public; for example, radio or television broadcasts, music-on-hold, cable television, and by the internet. Generally, those who publicly perform music obtain permission from the owner of the music or his representative. However, there are a few limited exceptions, (called "exemptions") to this rule. Permission is not required for music played or sung as part of a worship service unless that service is transmitted beyond where it takes place (for example, a radio or television broadcast). Performances as part of face to face teaching activity at a non-profit educational institutions are also exempt. |

But at least the musicians will receive a bit of the money and I want to support the artists.

Better off buying second hand and making them a donation then. The vast majority of the money from other purchases is simply propping up the old business model, and frankly I can make a good case for that being immoral.
