Now, if you listen to my song, and then play the same tune on your piano and sing in your voice, that is not a copyright infringement. If, however, you decide to release your album, with my song on it, but performed by you, you are stealing my property (my right to be compensated for use of my work) and you will be held liable. Honestly, this stuff is so simple that I can't understand why people don't get it... unless it's because they don't want to get it because they want to continue to steal while hiding behind the fiction that they aren't stealing. Don't ask me to defend the RIAA, but I will point out that it was the growth of things like Napster that spurred RIAA on, just as it was the discovery by Microsoft that 2 out of every 3 copies of Windows was pirated which spurred them on to add online license verification. |
