Indeed.

The Folk and Indie scenes are a lot more in touch with their audience than the
major labels.  For instance, Mike Agranoff [ http://www.MikeAgranoff.com/ ]
has in his CD "...or would you rather get a job?", the following:

Unauthorized duplication of this recording is illegal and unethical.  BUT it's
awfully convenient, and some of you are going to do it anyway.  So here's how
to make it right: If you want to dupe a song to learn it, show it to a friend,
or put it in a compilation tape, be my guest.  If you are going to dupe the
whole album, send me a check for $4.00, which is a fair license fee, I think.
Make the check out to me, and sent it to the address below.  And I'll send you
a copy of the CD booklet.  Better still, just buy a copy of your own.  Send me
a check for $17 post paid.
