Tldr: it's XL Recordings (the company that owns Radioheads catalog) and Google that are trying to file the claim, not anyone in Radiohead.
I'm surprised Radiohead don't own their catalog, tbh.
I think thats the case for most artists and their art... Specially in the music industry
Artists that give away entire albums tend to own the music. That doesn't seem to be the case with Radiohead.
Warner Chapell does
which now operates as part of Beggars Group Digital
Wow that's a really fitting name for a copyright troll!
Pirating is good. Pirating ziohead is even better.
Thom has a point about Trump and not playing in America. Personally I'd rather see more people boycott America.
Because he's been through the desert on a horse with no rain?
This is a moronic take, the kind of thing only some western Gen Z cancel culture warrior with no life experience would believe in. Radiohead understand that large numbers of their fans live in countries with questionable or outright authoritarian governments (they are massive in South America, for example). It would be very problematic if they started picking and choosing which of their fans was deserving of a live concert based on where they live or what kind of policies their government has been pursuing. Their music is something that unites people from all over the world and continuing to share it with everyone is the best thing they can do in this situation.
Wow, what a terrible article. The author doesn't engage with any of the substantive points Radiohead and Nick Cave are making, he just disparages them and insists on his obvious moral superiority. It's dressed up in some, admittedly, very nice writing, but this is just childish name calling.
Still, interesting read. Thanks for sharing.
I love how the graphic they used subtly informs the user of where they can go to get the track, but it's literally text from the complaint so they're in the clear.
Weighing in at over 9,600 URLs, hidden deep inside is one of our URLs which, according to the notice, should be disappeared by Google for the remainder of eternity, for violating copyright law.
That article contains no copyrighted material apart from our own, and doesn’t link to any infringing content either.
It's not a link to the track, but their own reporting on the leak.
Look at the graphic my dude...
Ahh yes, the first one. I thought they were the same, and the second one was zoomed in for my old eyes.
