Pink Floyd Suing EMI Label Over Online Royalties »
The band is asking for clarification to their more than 10- year-old recording contract with EMI, Pink Floyd’s lawyer, Robert Howe, said at a hearing in a London court today. When their contract was negotiated in 1998 and 1999, “both parties were faced with a whole new world of potential exploitation,” Howe said.
“It was unclear whether record companies would be selling direct to the consumer or through retailers,” Howe said. Apple Inc.’s online music retailer iTunes “wasn’t launched in the U.K. until 2004. These negotiations were taking place six years before that.”
