Copyright

its been a while so i will have to do some catching up. we talked about the copyright law a few weeks back. some interesting ideas that were brought up; downloading the music versus buying the cd or album. also another interesting that was mentioned was that musicians make around 2 cents per dollar the recording company makes, which i find funny. cause the recording company doesn't do that much work that the band couldn't do for themselves. bands like Nine Inch Nails and Radiohead have putout albums for fans to "download" and pay what they thought would be a good price for the cd, some payed nothing, some payed more. i thought this was a really good idea because all the money made this ay went right to the band not through a filter that is the recording company.
