UNKLE Paying Lip Service?

Filed Under Movies and Music on 2007-11-08, 20:35

I received a free copy of this mix cd when I saw UNKLE live at the Mezzanine in San Francisco. I was happy to see them embracing a more open stance on music and copyright until I read the conflicting fine print:

The copyright in this sound recording is owned by Surrender All. Made in the UK. All rights of the producer and owner of this recorded work reserved. Unauthorised copying, public performance, broadcasting, hiring or rental is prohibited.

So based on this I can’t legally rip it or burn it (unauthorised copying), and I can’t share it (public performance, broadcasting). What gives?

Hey, mind sending that to me? I have a really good throwdown mix of theirs, about 43 minutes long, that was pre-Never, Never, Land if you don’t have it already.

I saw them live when they came through Minneapolis a couple years ago and they weren’t so exciting but I dig their stuff.
