Well well well. Fresh from settling on a collusion case last year, the music publishing industry is found with its hand in the cookie jar once again, allegedly cheating its recording artists out of $100 million. Yes those recording artists, the people this whole copyright campaign is supposed to protect. "On April 22, 2003, the U.S. District Court based in Los Angeles, dealt a serious blow to BMG and Sony, deciding that the two major-label-owned 'record clubs' had no leg to stand on to get the case thrown out of court, and would have to attempt to prove to a jury that they just 'forgot' or were really going to pay songwriters 'when they got around to it.'" Wonder where the RIAA publicity is on this one. Or for that matter, the mainstream media.
