    means if you got your music placed in a movie or tv they ask you for royalties

    In other words, "royalty-free unless you make money with it-- then, I want some, too." :rofl:

    Major vs Minor...at least in theory.

    I've noticed this in the past without understanding it. Is it legally enforceable with past cases where people have had to cough up £$? IMO it defeats the object somewhat.

    I really dislike the legal profession becoming ever more involved with artists in the pursuit of cash. That recent Katy Perry ruling was a bad joke, anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of basic music theory could hear that the similarities were negligible. I suppose record companies have to make their money somewhere, now that the gravy train is rusting in a siding.
