Question: When you perform a solo w/ an orchestra... who is the copyright
holder for that performance/sound-recording when one is made? Is it the
composer, orchestra, soloist, publisher, combination, who?

Just came across mp3.com.au and thought about uploading some stuff... BUT...
had second thoughts when I read the artist agreement... for example:

"You warrant and represent that:
(i) you exclusively own or control all right, title and interest in the
copyright in the Tracks (including but not limited to the right to broadcast
and transmit the Tracks in intangible form to the public by any means
whatsoever); and... "

Unless it's, like, a recording for a record label, I don't clearly see who
the "exclusive" owner would be for such a situation.
