So to be honest, yeah, I have no issues living in a world where that person has more of a say with what happens to their creation.......and "if" someone wants to use it, they get clearance and if need be, pay for the right.

Otherwise.......we have an explosion of untalented and uncreative people using the works of others......great, I can get tons of music for free but at the cost of real creativity.

songs /speeches are all protected equally

imagine if we lived in a world where the only way you could use a politicians speech to make fun of him was if you got his permission.
