I think it is important to respect the efforts of the creators of art and music, and I support the concept of copyright, but a point can be reached when the efforts to enforce a long-established model of compensation become detrimental to society as a whole -- along with unfair and unjust --and when that point is reached the model has to be changed.

The point has been reached. The model has to be changed.

Absolutely. Why do artists even bother going through ASCAP anymore?
