[ARSCLIST] Orphan Works Article in Billboard

[Tim Brooks <Tbroo@xxxxxxx>]

For those who might be interested there is a feature story in this week's
issue of Billboard (May 14) about the Copyright Office "orphan works" inquiry.
It talks about the problem of older recordings whose owners can't be found, and
liberally quotes our own Sam Brylawski (and incidentally me).  It also
mentions that organizations such as AFTRA and the AFM are urging a limited
compulsory license for out-of-print recordings, which would allow the artists, at
least, to legally reissue those recordings themselves.  The author, Billboard
investigative reporter Bill Holland, really seems to "get it."
