N.E. Brigand Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Does Tresona have a Google alert on their name, such that every time we type something unpleasant about them here, someone there ends up reading it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically.... The traditional Happy Birthday is copyright protected. No, I'm not kidding. Found that one out the hard way through the school I teach at. Yup, total pain in the butt...and ridiculous, but it is what it is. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajlisko Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Here's what Wiki says ... The American copyright status of "Happy Birthday to You" began to draw more attention with the passage of the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act in 1998. When the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Act in Eldred v. Ashcroft in 2003, Associate Justice Stephen Breyer specifically mentioned "Happy Birthday to You" in his dissenting opinion.[16] American law professor Robert Brauneis, who extensively researched the song, concluded in 2010 that "It is almost certainly no longer under copyright."[17] In 2013, based in large part on Brauneis's research, Good Morning to You Productions, a company producing a documentary about "Good Morning to All", sued Warner/Chappell for falsely claiming copyright to the song.[5][10] In September 2015, a federal judge declared that the Warner/Chappell copyright claim was invalid, ruling that the copyright registration applied only to a specific piano arrangement of the song, and not to its lyrics and melody.
