[Fmpro] Music biz hopes to profit from consumer content

[Dana from Serious Vanity Music]

It seems like it would be the obvious answer!  And I know they've gotten far 
more precise with these things since the days of the old Mp3.com when there 
were literally artists running rackets to get more money from downloads. 
Why CAN'T it be (or isn't it being) used from a licensing/royalty standpoint 
(No need to answer)?
