Just checked — all the stolen Lennon songs are still available.
This is going to be expensive. 20,000 songs x $150,000.
A nice start for YouTube Musickey…

Not likely.

Great start: “We gave you a list of 20,000 works on Friday. It’s Monday, why aren’t they down?”

Thank you Irving! You are the first guy with balls in the world of music. Labels, RIAA or IFPI are just traitors and collaborators of music industry suicide.
Let’s bypass them, get all the mega stars and lobby in new fair use act. Next day Radio and streaming (Pandora and Spotify too) can be converted to $100B discovery based music store.
New fair use act will criminalize Shazam, Soundhound, Google Music Search and few other music and lyric ID services prostituting music to 2 billion of freeloaders.
PIMPS of music will become overpaid cashiers of $100B industry.

In this country, people are litigious happy…especially in the music industry. I doubt this will move forward much, if it ever gets off the ground. Irving – whatever.

Way past time for Google & co. to ante up. Enough with this lame ass fight against music and musicians. Stop using others peoples content to make yourself rich. We all know who the real Man is, so can the freedom of speech smoke screen and pay-up.
