Musicians Shouldn't Profit from the Sale of Social Networking Site Bebo to AOL
read more
Thomas Hawk
Thomas Hawk submits:
I love the music of Billy Bragg. Billy Bragg was one of my central
musical influences in college and I think he's enormously talented as a
musician. I've purchased every album he's ever released and I have a
bunch of bootleg recordings of his on top of the legit albums. Some of
the bootleg versions of "Waiting for the Great Leap Forward" are far
better than his recorded version and the way that he changes his lyrics
when he plays live makes those recordings that much better.
That
said, I think Billy Bragg is wrong about musical artists deserving a
piece of the action from the recent sale of social networking site Bebo
to AOL [owned by Time Warner (TWX)].
