thanks for this link, i was aware of this practice BUT not to the extent of
how these 'music publishers' get their way. do you HAVE to work with a
music publisher to get your music out in the community? sometimes i see
that artists have copyright control on their recordings. i figured that
this must mean, they didn't publish it but are the sole owners of the
recording? am i right?
All the best,
