'As a whole, the music industry is threatened by ASCAP's continued push to make money from every use of music available. The organization has strong well-meaning goals in their desire to protect musicians copyright. However, these ambitions are being clouded by their inability to view uses of music with reason and to use discretion when dealing with distributors of musical forms.'

Greed biting it's own feet off. ASCAP has never been about the music. It's all about chasing change . . .

DC has turned me onto so much good music - and in turn caused me to seek out and spend even more hard-earned $$ on tunes. Horizons truly hugely broadened. DC 4 eva!

Tragic! :(

Added: “Royalties” of the Day
Every one remember to send ASCAP a nice thank you card for closing down another music supporter. And don't forget the royalty check. No artist will ever see a penny of it but ASCAP needs funds to shut down such as TOTD. It all about money, we all know where that leads . . .

What a shit world we live in.

definitely not a "pretty simple setup."
From: Cracklin' Chimney
Pretty much just the opposite keyboard types setup from yesterday's RJD2 link. Interesting modded RY30 though - that's an underrated gem right there.
