You will have to f...k quite a lot of people, if you apply that to 
everyone, who deserves it.

No, not Zuckowski: GEMA is the problem. Some say, GEMA is the most 
aggressive and reactionary PRO in the west. Its politics dictate every 
musician: be with us or be nothing. And they do not ask Zuckowski or any 
of their members before they sue a kindergarden, a hospital or a social 
youth club.
