You know; thinking about copyright laws and CD's I wonder this. Since when you purchase a CD you really only own the disc but not the recording; what would happen if for some reason the artist decided he no longer wanted his music to be sold. Does he have any right of rescision?
Could he require that all holders of CD's with his music on them return the CD and be refunded for the musical performance only?

Say Audioslave wants their recording of, "Doesn't Remind Me", returned because they no longer like what the mix sounds like. Could they request that all CD's be wiped clean and the owners be compensated?
I mean if you own something then you own the right to control how it is used right?
