No they weren't. The deal sucked. She'd be several albums behind. She could have signed up and the company could still be sold to Scooter.

They sold because she left. Of course they sold after she bounced, they have no one else and the company is only viable with her and her masters. They wouldn't have agreed to that. Because as you said the company is worthless without her. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:930162236] in Taylor Swi...

BB mofo 11/15/19 3:23:42 PM #56:	metallica846 posted... Paul McCartney doesnt own a lot of his music either and hes rich, powerful and respected by everyone. Paul McCartney had first crack at purchasing his catalogue, but he listened to Yoko's advice about turning it down so that they would approach him later with a lower price. In truth, she wanted to cheat McCartney and buy the whole catalogue from underneath him. What she didn't expect was that Michael Jackson swooped in and bought the catalogue. As far as Jackson knew, McCartney had passed up a great deal. --- "But who prays for Satan?

How is any of this the record companies fault? Want to be able to do whatever you want with your music? Own the rights. The problem is that it is surprisingly hard to own your own music. Taylor Swift starter her career when she was 15. She signed a fairly standard record deal, which almost always include the company owning the rights to the songs. New musicians have functionally no leverage so they kind of have to sign these deals. Years later, Taylor Swift is one of the biggest names in music. She wants to move from her old record label and expressed desire to own her music. The deal they offered her was that she could her records back one album at a time, with her getting an album for each new album she makes (which the record company would own). This is obviously an insane deal of perpetual servitude. So she says no. Then Scooter Braun, someone with a vendetta against Taylor Swift buys up the company and now owns all of Taylor's songs. Taylor wants permission to use these songs for her AMA performance. Scooter makes her an impossible deal, despite the fact that as the owner of these songs, Taylor performing them on a major stage after winning a major award would only make him more money. Taylor decides to take it to the court of public opinion. A smart move given that people are always going to side with the artists over a record company, especially when company is represented by Scooter Braun, a known dirtbag. --- S** I have to stop doing that," Gheb said, as he lay back down and died again.* - Forgotten Love Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl <cite>Gheb posted [p:930187076] in Taylor Swi...

The fact that a company can just sell off someone's lifes work without their input will always be bullshit. This is why it pays to make unprofitable art.

Lol I cant imagine being so low information I did not even attempt to refute anything, so I dont know what the fuck youre talking about. If I wanted to refute, I would have repeated what others have already reminded you- that Taylor Swift is upset because she doesnt own the rights to property she clearly intended to use and that threw a proverbial wrench into her plans. That is the legality of it, despite whatever you feel like crying tears about on her behalf. If contracts and ownership laws change in the future, then thats fine by me and good for future artists. But by all means, keep crying until then. --- ... <cite>Lorenzo_2003 posted [p:930406406] in Taylor Swi...
