Jesus Christ. They're literally sending spies now. To a funeral no less. What a bunch of fucking ghouls. I'm just pirating shit out of principle now...
The copyright industry is pretty much a legal protection racket. Nothing is sacred to them. In Germany they have been suing Kindergartens over singing old childrens' songs with the children.
A business is a business. And as long as funeral homes charge money for their services, they don't get exemption from anything.
Nope, if you invite to a free party, you also have to pay.
