Actually this is my second try to join the Threadiverse, too, except this time it might just stick for a change. Coming from the Fediverse side, where I've been since 2008 or 2009. Caught the tail end of Usenet, too, but to me forums are what's worth preserving and/or reviving here.

Sure, you have the legal right to cover someone else's song without asking permission first, but you still have to pay them royalties afterwards, at fair market rates.
