[eu-gene] Psst...Wanna Buy an Algorithm? (Working Title)

[Paul Brown]

Thanks for the correction to my grammatical slip up. You are, of course,
right. 
In answer to your question, because if the music generated by the music
system is not fixed, i.e. recorded or written down in some form, no
copyright exists in it. Because there is no copyright within the music
created it falls out of the jurisdiction of performing, mechanical and
phonographic right societies. They cannot pay royalties out on titles
that have no copyright ownership on them.

Q: why is there no royalties on generated music?

Note: "effects" rather than "affects" in the title
