Not sold....
"3. Or are you saying that it is OK as long as the resulting music is not sold?"

I actually don't see a problem, personally, with covering/sampling if it's not used for any monetary gain, which means it can't be live, or on an album...and there's not much you can do besides that, that's big.
I was referring to commercials, which don't make money directly...You are right, anybody who wants to use one of my songs for their home movie can, and should.

Soundtrack
I remember hearing this porno house track about a year ago that clearly had one of your songs on it. The guitar sample was unmistakeably yours. Whack! Eric • 2/25/04; 10:35:33 AM
Hm, I don't know what you are referring to. If you can find a music file of it, or a commercially available CD, please alert me. Although there isn't a lot of hope in those cases. About 6 years ago a fan alerted me to the fact that a lot of my music was being used in a particular porno movie. We alerted Sony Publishing and my attorney tried to get a suit going....

Unfortunately a lot of porno producers create companies that only exist for a few months and then they are gone...no forwarding address, no nothing...very underground and needless to say highly illegal.
