Hello Nikolas I cannot share your point of view, but I can respect you as a person and I can respect your point of view. Tell me any other profession where you can get paid (or your childs) up to 70 years after your work is done. In other professions, people have to earn money, put parts of the mone...

Hallo Ich denke denen wird nichts anderes übrigbleiben. Nicht wegen mir - ich bin nur Privatmann und als solcher ein Niemand. Ich habe den Brief an mehreren Stellen veröffentlicht, damit ihn UE nicht totschweigen kann. Die neue Bewegung der Piratenparteien wird man bei UE und anderen Ernst nehmen mü...

I cannot accept that a person is paid for his/her productive work many years after his/her own death. The Swedish Pirate Party - and other Pirate Parties in Europe - work for fun...

Now I read - as so many others - that Mr. Feldmahler was forced by representatives for the publishing industry to close down the webbsite IMSLP. I was a new user and now I feel very sad and disappointed that th...
