My first comment. Hurrah.

I have several thoughts whenever this particular topic comes up...

A lot of Star Wars fanfilms used John's music and he and/or LucasArts seemed cool with it. The same applied to Star Wars Galaxies machinima when it came around. Since then youtube has smacked me twice for using music from the Gladiator and LotR soundtracks (does that happen on machinima.com and warcraftmovies.com?) but there hasn't been a peep about the SWG ones.

Does promotion of the music being used ever come into play? I reckon the Baron's "I'm So Sick" video does more for the musicians than the Resident Evil movie it's related to... even if Milla's body is in it.

I also find myself thinking I'm more likely to ask a composer/musician if I can use their music than any record label.

Finally, a decent reason for Thrall to pass on the title of warchief to Hellscream the Younger... he's just not scary enough for the job anymore!
