RZA has an idea. I have a better one.

Wu-Tang Clan founder RZA has spoken out about the recent "Blurred Lines" copyright infringement verdict.

He's got an interesting solution for solving the problem of musicians sampling others' works: a a 50% statutory cap on royalty payments.

I have a better idea:  how about negotiating a license before you use somebody else's recording in your work, instead of just ripping them off and waiting to get sued?

Just a thought.
