Anyone know much about the legalities of posting music recorded by

web site, mostly as a demo of MMA ... but I got to wondering the other
day if some nice lawyer is going to be knocking on my door? I'm not too
worried since I do live in Canada, and the server is <somewhere in
Europe>. But, still ... one has to wonder.
is this for a demo of your work as a performance artist? Are you asking
for any money?
What agreement do you have with the composer? Who has the various rights
to the work (publisher, mechanical,etc.)
If you have no agreement, the best thing to do is to find out your
rights as a performance artist (if you are) and also contact the various
copyright holders. The composer just might make an agreement with you so
that you can post the work and both of you can benefit.
