By songwriters I mean real songwriters not some organization with the word "composer" or "collective" on their title. My guess is that songwriters have absolutely no role in the negotiations and that others are negotiating or have negotiated behind doors for the songwriters, and the royalty scam will continue. I wonder. does Microsoft allow the rental of their software?
