To be fair to Prince

Here is a kewl podcast on Copyrights and it really breaks things down. (Prince is even mentioned in the Podcast.)

It will help us understand why Prince isn't happy with people covering his music and the whole situation with You Tube.

#005 : Jeff Brown - A lawyer who knows a thing or two about copyright

Copyright Law – It’s what gives a copyright owner their power. Established by the framers of the US Constitution, it was designed to strike a balance between the interests of authors, and the interests of the public. We’re surrounded by copyrights. They penetrate our lives on a daily basis. They’re what hold the music industry together. Entertainment lawyer, Jeff Brown, joins us to discuss the ways of copyright and copyright law. Mind what you learn, because you’re taking your first step into a larger world!
