What worries me is.... what if you want to release your music for free? Then you will have to pay for the creation of a licence that the mobile company can use to check the phones with your music on it. i.e. If the phone company has to check all music for its legality then your gonna have to pay them to do so. A bit like in america when they wanted a single company to collect all royalties from the radio and internet radio companies, even if you gave your music away for free, this collection company would still collect royalties on your behalf and the only way to get the money from the royalty company is to pay a yearly levy to them. So they screw money out of it either way. This is all so wrong. But then again someone will jailbrake the phones surely or at least I hope they do

Hehe...if the only threat is a message saying "You are killing a terrible industry that needs to die" then I don't see how this will stop piracy.
