But Mark, one must keep things in perspective. It's one thing to post
someone else's article (like the pitch article) when the source may get
upset, and morally wrong to claim someone else's ideas as your own, but one
can go overboard. The G&S parody was one of thoughs throw away things that
people do for the fun of it. Taking things to that level really debases the
original intent of the laws, and makes for very dull groups.

PS: Only some of Bach's works were for hire (unlike Mozart). Much was
didactic or for publication (or both). And the final versions of the
Brandenberg Concerti were freebies, sent in hopes of career advancement.

I personally consider copyrights, music unions, music education, and
other such things to be related to clarinetists (and musicians in
general). I may not agree with some of the law (especially the length of
time & publishers that won't release copyrights but won't publish,
either) - but it's the law, and I'd like to keep Sneezy running. It's
more difficult than most would think. For instance:
