HH50: Royalty Highness

Our special FIFTIETH episode is all about music royalties and licensing! Very special guest, Professor Robert Greenberg (a.k.a. Dr. Bob), is here to share knowledge from the dual perspectives of both a composer AND a producer of music-containing media.  Patrons of Habeas Humor get a super-sized director’s cut of Dr. Greenberg’s interview.
