Duffmeister on Nostr: Have any musicians here been through a copyright lawsuit? I had to go through one ...
Have any musicians here been through a copyright lawsuit? I had to go through one with a label when I was just starting out. It drained my spirit in every way. Ended up having to sell my rights in the end anyways. The lawyer I was working with was generous and didn’t charge me as a “welcome to the industry” lesson. Had he done so, I would have been in debt. It’s my belief that the current copyright/IP law is meant to serve major artists and labels with the resources.
