You expected some part of the music industry to be fair or something? Of course, you were just a snot nosed little punk so after they beat you up they took your lunch money. Christ! Why did you hang out with people like that? Then again, how were you to know? I bet at first it was all bright lights and big crowds. Did you even realize you were getting shorted for royalties 'til long after you left? To tell you the truth, though, there are a lot of incredibly tallented artists working out there under far worse arrangements than you were getting. Anything they do with their art belongs to their company with no chance of them even being credited. There are lots of very famous performers out there that don't own any of their hits. A change is gonna come and I think your project may be one of the early signs of how it may work. So did the WorldPay thing work out or did they remain fucking morons? Censorship by a fucking financial middleman is crap. www.psychicreform.com Money does not equal speech. Corporations are not people. Watch your overcoat.
