schestowitzIt is possible, but if we do DB downtime/maintenance one hour per month, on average, then I don't know if it's worth the effort. When we move to another OS -- I hope soon -- downtime might be gone (almost)Mar 16 08:41

schestowitzWhile I agree that it is a positive outcome for music creators, I would argue that "the music industry and the creators are NOT on both sides of these copyright infringement cases." (ie. Skidmore v Led Zeppelin, Ed Sheeran v Kathryn Townsend Griffin)Mar 16 10:05
schestowitzIn both cases, it is not the creator who is bringing the case, even though both Ed Townsend and Randy California had plenty of time to do so in their lifetimes. I think this speaks volumes for the motives in these cases, which unfortunately has little to do with rewarding musical creativity...Mar 16 10:05

schestowitzYou're totally right Mark - this case, the Townsend (and the Blurred lines!) action are brought by VERY distant people to the creatives. In this case they were able to overcome the the laches defence, as it does not apply where the copyright infringement is ongoing, but I think it speaks volumes that neither Wolfe, or his mother who founded the trust, brought an action.Mar 16 10:06
schestowitzMy comment about the creatives being on both sides of the court was in general, not about this case, but speaking more broadly to the rise in musical copyright infringement case, for example the Sheeran v Switch case in the UK has creators and industry on both sides. My point is that when people say this is a victory for the industry, it is short sighted because they can be on the receiving end just as easily.Mar 16 10:06
