How do you pay the artists involved? How do you pay publishing for the composers?

Chuck, he's trading live recordings. He isn't selling. I've never seen evidence that this has any impact on purchases of officially released material. In fact, I'd bet that the people who trade live shows (or use Dime) are the type that would happily buy a "new" live CD, just to have another example of that artist's live shows. The only right that gets infringed on is the artists right to control what of their music is "out there" but I'd say they forfeit that right when they agree to the live broadcast.

There's a member here who has a gigantic collection of reels from trades he made 40 years ago. Since I converted them to CD, should I ask him about paying the artists and paying publishing? The only thing that has changed from then til now is the technology. Otherwise artists have done radio broadcasts, and people have used whatever technology they possess to record them.
