And arists sue all the time.

People use my song “Aldo is gay” all the time, and I sue,

So what you are saying is they can sue because their songs are being used illegally. Thanks for playing!!!!

 

[Grumblenuts]

Lead some horses to water till you're blue in the face. They repel all fact based analyses. Still, 'tis our duty to try..

It's stealing. The music that musicians make is their income. You have no right to use it without permission any more then I have the right to come to your house and take your car without permission. Remember Napster?

If these politicians want to use a song, GET PERMISSION.

It's stealing. It's a crime punishable by a fine of anywhere from $200 to $150,000.

 

[NoNukes]

I guess one of the hate sites is programming the drones.

You do know that songs are copywritten, right?

 

[NoNukes]

They lost.

As long as royalties are paid, anyone can use any PUBLISHED work.

Don't want people to play your song? Don't publish it. Publishing is a license to the public to use the published material.

This is not how it is done.

No, not necessarily....It is covered under the "fair use" doctrine....

The Fair Use doctrine is not what you think. It's quite complicated. If it doesn't meet the criteria, you would still need approval of the copyright holder.

She is not using the song to make money.

She is using the song to energize people to get out and vote.

That makes it public domain.

The term of copyright for a particular work depends on several factors, including whether it has been published, and, if so, the date of first publication. As a general rule, for works created after January 1, 1978, copyright protection lasts for the life of the author plus an additional 70 years. For an anonymous work, a pseudonymous work, or a work made for hire, the copyright endures for a term of 95 years from the year of its first publication or a term of 120 years from the year of its creation, whichever expires first. For works first published prior to 1978, the term will vary depending on several factors. To determine the length of copyright protection for a particular work, consult chapter 3 of the Copyright Act (title 17 of the United States Code). More information on the term of copyright can be found in Circular 15a, Duration of Copyright, and Circular 1, Copyright Basics.

Copyright laws are to prevent somebody else from profiting monetarily from your work.

If i charged you to come to a venue where I used one of Petty's song to entertain you and made money then it would be a clear violation of the copyright laws. Like a movie using his song during the opening credits and not paying him for it.

An exception is made for music and other entertainment material for use in the public domain.

She did not use the music to make money. She used it to for entertainment in a public setting. The intention was to get people out to vote.

This would be a good one for the courts to decide.

They could rule that this Libtard jackass Petty has the right to prevent her from using his music because he is a Moon Bat shithead or they could decide it met the definition of public domain.

Clearly you have no clue about copyright law.

And his panties are thoroughly wadded.

Still hasn't even grokked that "this Libtard jackass Petty" has been dead for years.

Must be having hot Flashes.

Clearly you have no clue about copyright law.

The problem you are having understanding the issue is that you are a stupid confused uneducated Moon Bat that hates Keri Lake that clearly has moral clarity and has been exposing the stupidity and dishonesty of the goddamn Democrats and you don't like it.

You have a distorted view of reality because you have a mental illness, probably caused by TDS, TDS is a serious mental illness that has affected you Moon Bat's capacity to understand basic reality.

From Tom Petty to REM: Musicians Who Banned Politicians from Using Their Songs at Rallies

Want to see musicians get angry? Just tip them off that politicians they don't support are using their music to pump up crowds of supporters. This has never been more valid than it is in today's political climate.

I've studied copyright law for many years. You are way out of your league.
You can't break laws without consequences just because you disagree with them.
