    The lawsuit said the recordings are all available on authorized streaming services and “face no danger of being lost, forgotten, or destroyed.”

    Yeah right, they all are poorly done digital remasters, edited versions and/or re-recordings. Funny how the record labels are the ones whose destroying their own music.

    Not every track in their original form is available on streaming services, like you can’t stream the original “Set Adrift on Memory Bliss” by P.M. Dawn because all you can get is a cheap re-recording with a different vocalist.

      Exactly. Recordings of the song being available ≠ original recordings of the song being available.

      It’s like if I demolished the Eiffel tower, and then said the Blackpool tower’s still around so you can’t archive any photos of it
