a performing has ALL the rights to his own stuff until he signs something...his choice as to what he signs. If I buy a copy of his stuff, no matter where from, I can't see me getting the right to post it on the internet as part of that deal unless it is specifically spelled out.I am NOT defending anyone, or attacking anyone specifically...in fact, I like the idea of people being able to trade 'legal' songs so easily...just don't like bulk, wholesale rip-offs.
