brownie Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Musicians have to make money. Not many people buy their recordings any more, and now they can’t play shows. It has to be really tough when there is no real end date to this in sight. I say if a company wants to pay them for music to use in an ad, go for it. We all have bills to pay.

TCP Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Yeah, zero issue, but I also had zero issue with the Volkswagen ad back in the day. Maybe if they were writing and recording new material exclusively for advertisements... even then I didn't have much of an issue when Jack White did that for Coca Cola.

uncool2pillow Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Agreed. The music industry is very different than it was when Neil Young released "This Note's For You". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gold87 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 how do people feel about this song being used in corona beer commercial? It is not going to influence me to by some Corona, but the ad and use of the music is fine by me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
