ON MONDAY, China Audio-Video Copyright Association required karaoke businesses to stop using 6,000 songs. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:
A quick glimpse at the 6,000 songs shows most of them are songs that date back to the early 2000s even the 1990s, with many of them composed and originally sung by Hong Kong singers. Why are there few songs from later years or mainland performers?
It is because until recent years, China's copyright protection left much to be desired.
