Ex Pink Floyd Fan, how can you say PF are being greedy without knowing/providing details of the terms of the lawsuit?

If it’s money that’s rightfully theirs then suing is a matter of principle and honour – why would you let someone steal from you and let them get away with it regardless of your wealth?

Henley was always a big Zero without the rest of them to check his whiney self centeredness..

I can’t believe they take and take and can’t even bother to put out anything new that’s worth while… They should feel more gratitude for the sheep toiling in the mud, if it weren’t for them, they’d not have all that they know take for granted..

Give your $ to the next generation who are actually working to take music to the next level..

93. I have long been a fans of Eagles and Don Henley seen ‘em live and many other artist from all political landscapes and some unaffiliated.
I’m also a songwriter and met Col. Buster Doss of Stardust Records International of Nashville who started the careers of Tracy Lawrence and many, many, others. Buster had a NUMBER ONE song on Talent Records in 1948, and produced Wolverton Mountain released by Merle Kilgore who later became Hank Williams, Jr’s manager.

Buster had someone in the UK steal his song, but it was not the lyrics. It was the musical composition.

Buster thought with all his success; why worry about one song when you could end up closing doors. But LADIES AND GENTS WE ARE TALKING 1948.
THIS IS 2009!

THERE IS A THING CALLED FREE SPEECH, but because you assert this does not give you the right to take SR & PA works from other Artist without permission! DeVore could have requested license use.
Most fans out here have no idea of the difficulty when a new band or artist gets signed, that its really a loan and not much of a record deal. All the hype and that only few of the mega artist support the rest who don’t make it.
The majority of Artist today have to tour more often and longer because of song crooks downloading! THIMK!
Artist works are works and they too have to put food on the table like the rest of us. If Henley was nameless; I’d still side with that person for I too also have protected copyrighted works (ASCAP).
