I think that chaku-mero is lower on the priority list (or perhaps not on it
at all) for ASCAP and JASCAP etc. than the streaming of duplicated versions
of commercial releases. The real issue would be whether rights are protected
for MP4 music when 3G is introduced. But it will likely not be an issue,
since all the hardware makers have devised incredibly complex key systems
and built them into their memory cards so that music drawn from the network
cannot be duplicated or transmitted.
