He doesn't even own the publishing rights. He owns about 5-10%, with Lennon's Estate and McCartney controlling half, and Sony owning the rest after Jackson couldn't meet the payments.

Comment on How come Everyone thinks Michael Jackson owns The Beatles Recording? EMI Says They Own the Master Tapes? by mars

Michael Jackson’s Estate owns the majority of The Beatles songs. The estimated value of this catalog -in 2009- was 1.1 Billion dollers US. Long term royalties have been estimated to be five times that. EMI may own the master tapes; but these are really only historical documents. The cans are the property of EMI, and when the original printing on albums etc. was done; they owned the -temporary- copywrites. This changes when the owner of the copywrite; (the song’s author), makes a written agreement -an ‘Exclusive Grant’- to assign the copywrite to another organization, such as a publisher. Copywrites can be bought, sold, willed to others, or given away. In 1985, Michael Jackson Holdings bought the publishing rights to 159 or 251 Beatles songs (depending which company is counting), for 47.5 million dollers. This means that the Michael Jackson estate gets a royalty whenever a Beatles song is played or printed. Selling copywrites restricts the future use of the works by the author. Therefore, there is often artist negotiation; but Michael Jackson would not. Paul MacCartney describes the discussion he had -somewhat bitterly- on an appearance on the David Letterman show. (Note that ‘Lennon-MacCartney’ will always get a 50% share of the writers royalties). The EMI suit you’re referring to is the 2005 case, when the ex-Beatles sued them for 54 million dollers in unpaid royalties. Also not to be confused with the 1969 Lew Grade take-over bid of Northern Songs. In 1995 Sony Corp. paid Michael Jackson 95 million dollers to merge these ATV songs into a 50/50 joint venture called ‘Sony/ATV Publishing’.

Comment on If there’s a lot of illegal music download, why dont Music Labels make their records with different technology? by Colanth

If you can hear it you can record it. If you can record it you can post it for download. The only "technology" they could use to keep you from posting rips is "silent music", music you can't hear. And I don't think too many people would buy CDs with nothing on them (unless you could write to them).

Well, there isn’t a particular college that is going to teach you to how to run/own a music record label but it would probably would be a good idea to study Business/economics with a focus on the entertainment industry….

I would look for schools with good business schools and schools that also focus on the entertainment industry… Im sure there are plenty colleges that you could find in California…

Comment on can anyone please help me find a software for windows xp that records music from a software? by Upward Bound Precalc Tutor

Try this Easy Hi Q Recorder verson 2.4

You have to register it to be able to record more than 3 minutes and
pay $29.95 however it is excellent. Works on any sound platform.
I bought it since I gave up my sound blaster audigy in favor of the motherboard
AC-97 onboard sound that comes on the ASUS motherboards (and most others now)
Easy Hi Q allows you to set the format to *.wav, *.mp3, *.wma or others and
it allows you to select your kbps.

If you have a sound blaster product, creative recorder should be able to do this without
extra cost.
