Depending upon the reason for the termination, you may be able to obtain a further licence, in which case you will be able to keep all the sound recordings on the DJ Database and the Back-up Database.
If a new licence is not granted, you will have to delete all the sound recordings on the DJ Database that were not acquired by way of lawful downloads (and you will not be able use the remaining sound recordings for public performances). You also will have to delete all the sound recordings on the Back-up Database."

great, repeated license renewals, what a great idea i might start a label called bbc, or sky, cant wait until they police the net for all its traffic, which i would say is happening already anyway, we just dont know it. damn i cant wait for those id cards to come in, iam 1st in line, love it "control" with nothing to hide whats the problem?

Its amazing how loads of people on this forum get judged to be unhardcore and imoral beause there making about 9 quid more a year than the national average wage, hell freezes over on here if someone makes 1% above inflation.........oooh naughty producer, naughty naughty..........

**tocsin** · 21-09-2005, 05:53 PM

^^^^ Ummmm, what the hell are you talking about?

**Heroes** · 21-09-2005, 07:37 PM

iam on about the tired liitle rants because some people have been lucky to make a few quid in the good times, its starting to get about as interesting reading those post from people who missed the boat as it is about the vynle or mp3 endless whaff. thing is most rants about people making too much money are coming from people who either missed the boat or there stuff didnt really have too much to say. either way you look at it its all a bit playground and bitttter

**tocsin** · 21-09-2005, 08:19 PM

I guess we're reading different threads.

**Heroes** · 21-09-2005, 08:33 PM

**MARKEG** · 21-09-2005, 09:17 PM

right then *mark stamps his foot like a big girl*

let's get back on track!

:lol:

**tocsin** · 21-09-2005, 09:23 PM

Honestly, I'me very much lost, Mark. Seriously, if I've somehow missed something, fill me in.

**The Overfiend** · 21-09-2005, 10:11 PM

This is horrendous.
We get the good ones and then lose them to people who have not half of the experience points.

**The Divide** · 21-09-2005, 11:18 PM

Labels never really coined it in I don't think. Unless were talking mainstream music, which is totally out of context. Mirsha had a point as for the likes of Britney Spears and all that bull.

Personally I think this idea is a half baked act of desperation for PPL. Im not 100% what the PPL is, but im guessing that its similar than the MCPS. The MCPS is a waste of money imo, I signed up and got really confused by it all. All i know is for the fee i paid all i got was confused and some lousy letters from them telling me how many millions they were loosing in revenue. That revenue should have reached the artists which in techno I think would be peanuts anyways. Plus the label I was on at the time sorted all that out anyways but I think the problem was I never really liked the idea in the first place. My loss I guess

I do think some of the superstar dj's coined it in bigtime. I have said this all along. The ones that get my respect do a good job and actually support the scene without trying to milk it. Thats all I got to say really. Im guessing this may not work but schemes similar to this will follow

What makes me laugh out loud is the comment "even those note lawfully aqquired" This effectively gives a license to people who hold a license to illegally download and feel all smug that they have a 'license' to do it. In reality 200quid vs 20,000 downloads equals 1p per tune. how much of that will the artists see? less than that in a percentage for sure...
IF they manage to get anything at all.

Boo Hiss, very poor showing PPL!
