A law updating music copyright, rights fees, and clearing houses for music fees passed Congress and was signed by the President.

See: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/trump-signs-music-modernization-act-736185/

All of the big players in the music industry seemed to be happy.  Some individual performers spoke positively.

This was not on my radar.  The music industry has shrunk so much because of piracy, recorded music does not get much coverage in the Wall St. Journal.

Anybody knowledgeable on this story?

Kid Rock supports it, so it must be good for artists.

It is very attractive!  And most of interest!

Perhaps. If you are able.  Perhaps the most thing of interest is how can I work from home for more than my......well...work from home job.

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.
