Oh yes, ASCAP thinks having ringtones play when you’re in public is a copyright violation. Heh. While I suppose if I make them myself, this may be true; however, if I have purchased a ringtone from a store, the license comes with it and I can play it as often as I like as long as it’s on the damn phone.
I say suck it, ASCAP!
ASCAP Idiocy
