EMI will allow cricket songbook to be published


Tim sez, "EMI have rescinded their
copyright warning about the parody cricket songbook, according to its distributor."
Unless you've been living on another planet you would have surely been hearing about the Fanatics songbook over the last couple of weeks.

Just 5 days prior to the commencement of play at the Gabba it looked like we were going to have to shred the recently printed 100,000 copies.

After a slight misunderstanding with our good friends at EMI, we've been reliably informed that the songbook isn't in breach of any copyright laws and in turn the songbook is once ahead downloadable and fully legal.

Fantastic news for Aussie cricket fans the nation wide!!"

Link (Thanks, Tim!)
