I hope this is some bizarre joke. Finnish recording industry demands royalties for kindergarten singing. The Finnish recording industry is demanding that kindergartens pay 20 Euros per month in royalties for songs sung by the children. [Boing Boing Blog] [The Aardvark Speaks]

This kind of thing brings up something that has been bothering me more and more - we live in  societies where culture is owned. Culture used to be something that people did, now it's increasingly something they have to buy. That bothers me.
