If you go to any of the industry organization websites: SOUND CHOICE, CHARTBUSTER, BMI, ASCAP, etc, one is obviously going to get their biased slant. That does not say it's not prudent to see how these guys feel about things. They do wheel and deal in the industry.
From what I've observed over the years, the info on these forums posted by ADMIN are probably as well advised as one will find, short of going to the U.S. Copywrite office website and trying to decipher the legalese for one's self, or consulting a good copywrite attorney.
That's just my opinion, but I feel that way because ADMIN usually makes reference to having talked to an attorney, or someone in the Copywrite Office, or some well informed source whenever he does post such information.
Consequently, I feel ADMIN'S posts on the subject have some research behind them. Most of the time they deal with subjects relating to copywrite laws from the KJ perspective.
Like I said, an opinion only.
