Comment Same in Belgium (Score 1) 239
Sadly it is the same here in Belgium (for a couple of years already now). SABAM is extorting local DJ's for a fee of I believe 250 euros for this.
And why? Only because the law here says they can do it, you can only create public performances off of legitimately bought products, not derivatives.
It's just all very much twisted and fucked up, I am still awaiting the first rise of DJ's who aggressively campaign against this extortion (or media coverage of this malfunctioning copyright system). But pretty much to no avail.
