Whitey Explains to a TV Producer Why His Music Isn’t Free…
I have no idea who he is but this is utterly brilliant

Here, he explains to a TV producer why he insists on being paid for all of those arrangements. http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/perm...3/11/06/whitey |

Entertainment industry executive expecting an independent musician to license their music for free and I bet that same executive is the first to complain when people pirate their shite.
The sheer hypocrisy of many inside the entertainment industry is astounding. They are bigger parasites than any 'pirate' illegally downloading a movie or TV show. |

That was an excellent read, thank you!
I feel less & less bad for using streaming to check out new shows

An amusing read, but of course we've only got his alledged response to an alledged request (that he provide his music for free). TL, DR all the comments or the whole webpage, so does it say anywhere precisely what the original request was? Only thing I noticed was this comment from the TV company:
“We use a collective licensing system that ensures both the recording artist and composer are paid. We apologise for any confusion and we have contacted the artist to clarify this. We would never use music without permission and going through the proper procedures.” So maybe it wasn't quite as blunt as 'Give us some music for free'. Can't think why this Mr Whitely would want to publicise this? ![]()

He should pirate all their TV shows and when asked about it say "Sorry, I have no budget for TV".
These are the real parasites. Hypocrites too. |
