You may have noticed that the fine print is not my specialty,
& I've only got 1/2 an ear on the radio these days..

They tend edit & replay the meatier interviews of the day, after the 
10pm news.
But the 11.45am windup slot doesn't rate, it seems.

The main point was that ideas couldn't be copyrighted - you have to get 
them down in some form.

Interesting re music was that the distributors & the technology 
suppliers were working together (or against each other?) on this. 
Meaning there'd either be disabling digital stamps to look forward to, 
or no possibility of them at all.

Wish I could have been more interested while focussed on my screen / hth
