Unlike mechanical licenses, which are for the use of songs on "regular" recordings and are nominally subject to a statutory rate, sync licenses, which apply any time music is used to accompany visuals (i.e., film, video, TV show, advertisement) do not have a statutory royalty rate and must be negotiated in each case. Where a soundtrack album's going to be coming out, or where an artist has product out or coming out soon that might be promoted by a movie soundtrack use, there's an incentive for a songwriter to be accomodating in those negotiations, but where that's not the case, there isn't.

I have never understood that concept. The fact is, I didnt really like what she said all that much, but even more I didnt and still do not care that she actually said it, cuz she is a Dixie Chick and not someone who's opinion has anything to do with important matters of state.

When the controversy first arose, every conservative I knew suddenly revealed a long-held yet never-before-expressed horror of an American criticizing the president while standing on "foreign soil." Um, it was England. You know, our ally? It's been well over five years now, and I just wish folks would admit what all this was really about: Everyone assumed the Chicks were conservatives, which is the norm in mainstream country. When they discovered that wasn't the case, any flimsy excuse available was seized upon to eject them from the format. @Brady: Congratulations!

I understand if a song has lyrics that are in opposition to ones views and one may not like that song as a result, but I have to assume that anyone who decides to stop "liking" an artist solely based upon their stated beliefs must not have really liked that artist much to begin with and its really not a big deal that you dont like them anymore...
