   I thought this was one of the contentious issues with new 
environments such as ringtones, but that for radio airplay that CMMRA 
didn't come into play (rights on the recording), only for the making of 
mechanical copies (CD's, etc).

Note: I find music copyright excessively complicated and messy, which is 
why I believe that we need modernization (meaning simplifcation for the 
digital environment given that more players can be involved other than 
big-media companies).  Bill C-60 isn't modernization, but trying to take 
us backward...
