bard performance "rant"

They won't remove it. Other MMOs have this and had no copyright issues. Hell they don't even bother to action people who do use 3rd party songs, despite disclaimers saying they would. I doubt SE would either. It would take effort away from protecting people from parses.

SE is a Japanese company and they don't really have fair use over there.

That's irrelevant. They don't have the resources nor the manpower to police this. The statement is a 'Cover our Rear' measure at best.

Could you imagine that? A GM having to listen to everyone playing around and try to recognize a 3rd party song? Not gonna happen. And if the GM's are Japanese themselves.. well.. their ability to recognize western songs is going to be limited.

Most GM are from the same country as the main server , when some of them quit GM job , they keep playing the game normally , hell you be surprise how many GM have normal game character (with out power off curse).
