Do producers understand sampling and copyright law? Many producers believe sampling is “Fair Use” or that short samples/one-shots are automatically copyright-free. But these are myths that have been spread long enough. In today’s episode, we talk copyright and IP law and why it’s important. We also discuss whether managers should be paid for the money they save their artists. Erinn also asks what music industry professionals should do when they become burned out with the business.
