Never thought I’d have reason to say this, but I’m siding with Fred Durst and Limp Bizkit on this one!
“Three decades after it rose to prominence, the band and its founder, Fred Durst, alleges that Universal Music Group (UMG) owes more than $200m after fraudulently concealing royalties from the band.”

One wonders at a software bug that affects one band owed nine figures from decades ago.
@pomCountyIrregs @music “Accidentally”.
Just out of curiousity, has PCI ever been signed to a record label?
Do you see much in the way of royalties from the likes of Spotify or YouTube?
And do artists get much of a cut through Bandcamp?
