Hi bob, you know what, i was glad to see with the hollywood writers' strike that the public opinion seemed generally amenable to the concept of writers getting paid what they deserve in the face of changing technology.
I think that sends the right signal to the interested parties in our industry, and personally am not quite as paranoid as I was before. Not that ascap and BMI are unions per se, but i am comforted by what happened there.
