I think the recording industry is trying to purchase (or has recently
purchased) a law that satisfies this insistence. The gist I got was that the
law would make all work they publish will be considered a work for hire.
This it would be impossible to publish your own recordings through a record
company without effectively assigning the copyright to that record company.
