Yeah, it's really complicated Roger, at least for me who don't have
lawschool education.

But maybe this also have something to do about average common sense?
Most all keyboards have a lot of styles or presets where the titles
hint at different songs or artists. So do also several houndreds, if
not tousands of styles made by 3rd party suppliers.
I think it's great, and if the style / pattern are made as well as I
easily by i.e. mute a instrument in the accomp can use it for more
and different songs, it's even better.
The option with more than one intro & end etc. do this more flexible.
But, I can't see why that should make it more legal to spread the
style around as "freeware" by the buyers/users as long as it is made
and sold as (copyrighted) commercial addons, or what?
I think what it is about, is why bother to create any "food" for us
and our keyboards if only one of us buy, and that customer offer it
for free to the rest of the world?
It's sure nice to get it at first, but at the end there will be no
more developement and new stuff to other than from the "one and only"
(if any) who also will know to elevate the charge........
Happy playing
