Just heard about this documentary this morning and watched it on youtube. It's about the song-poem industry (song sharks). It's extrememely interesting. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad... Worth watching for sure. - Wed, 30 Dec 2009 3:16pm

Well 20-35 songs a day at $175-$500 per song... That's $3500 a day minimum! After paying the session players and operating costs that's still a pretty good chuck of change. I'm not sour enough to try a scam like that yet, but if I get chewed up and thrown aside by a cruel music business and end up getting closer to old age with no retirement, out of work but with a nice studio in my basement, and dissillusioned and bitter... this would be a nice way to earn a living. - Thu, 31 Dec 2009 3:07pm
