Maybe this is the way to go if you're a superstar DJ, though! We'll never know!

This is not a common occurance, I understand why one should pay for the original track but not its various parts. Lets face it, the track is'nt exactly platinum material here. This makes me (a devoted PVD fan) question Pauls motives on this one. Even if we put in the time and effort we stand to lose all the royalties involved. The only thing we gain is recognition. But maybe thats not such a bad thing after all. I'm still disappointed by his decision. He obviously does'nt trust his fans with an inch. Why does one have to pay for remix the remix parts?
