Thread Name: How to check out a copyright
Subject: RE: How to check out a copyright
"So, the wonderful songs of Joe Pumpernickel are lost because nobody can afford to publish them, and free publication is prohibited because the law protects all songs in order to preserve the commercial value of the works of Berlin and Gershwin and Porter."


                      So why not just publish to Pumpernickel songs anyway? What could they do to you, and who would do it. Whatever happened, surely it would be better than losing the songs.
