I agree with the stance. However, this bit from the above letter made me shake my head:
"I know that I wouldn't have released some of my own recordings had I known that, in the future, anyone could remix or alter them without my permission."
Oh please. Yes, I'm sure he never would have released Rumours and would happily have foregone all of the money it made him if he had known that sometime in the future, someone could do a offensively bad dance remix of "The Chain."
Yes, yes, I realize the letter was prepared for him, but still. If Don Henley could modify his a bit to be more reflective of his beliefs, so could Mick.
