can you skate around copyright laws by not pressing this on cd?

I dont know ?
I cant figuere out why µ hasnt gotten busted for this. But I think, or at least hope. That they have the permission of the label that released the origional song. That would be my best explaination. Maybe slodgechops can help us out here with some info?

i was hoping splodge would answer! pity! then i would urge him to regail us with stories about getting caught by artists who end up hearing the remixes. you know, i bet mc hammer said mu-ziq's remix was "real proper!" and i bet that little minx christina aguilera is just filling the planet mu office with steamy love letters to that young hunk bit_meddler!
seriously though, i think by putting the tracks on limited vinyl they're somehow able to avoid modern day copyright laws. maybe not legally, but tactically (with so few copies actually printed it's unlikely criminal 1 or 2 will end up in the hands of someone at a major label). or hey, maybe it's all a farce and they're not "criminals" after all and they paid a hefty fee. let's hope we get some funny stories after splodge finishes his coffee.

i know eminem would have a shit fit if he heard his song remixed and he didn't get a dime, which leads me to believe that they either paid or are more under the radar than i thought..

i remember people discussing this issue on the planet-mu board when the shitmix came out. i think they could get legally sued, but no one would actually go through the effort of suing planet-mu for this matter. the # of pressings are too insignificant, and imo, the money spent for the whole court thing would be more costly than the money they'd get by winning or something...

true, since they'd typically demand a % of the profits, right? it's not like de la soul sampling the turtles. what's 20% of $1000, divided by 6? hehe.

I heard about people altering one molecule or so, somehow, in the composition of some sort of food product that has a copyright to avoid any trouble.

the answer is simple. It is illegal and they have no copyright clearance. They have the balls to put it out. They could get sued but are too small an operation for anyone to give a damn. See also Kid 606's "action packed mentalist brings the fucking jams" None of the artists sampled get a dime. Mike is not gonna come disclose info that could be used against him in a court of law. case closed

that's a very good point about why he didn't (and SHOULDN'T) answer. i hadn't even thought of it from that perspective. i definitely wouldn't want to get him in any legal trouble so i'm glad he didn't reply, although i bet there are still some funny stories that will have to remain untold.
