Beastie Boys songs used in adverts

hanshotfirst [Edit] [Delete] 09:43, 25 January '16

So, iirc, it was written in MCA's will that it was his wish never to have Beastie Boys music used in adverts, right? They even sued Monster energy drinks for doing it.

Well there's some filthy Intergalactic remix being used as an ad for up-coming shows on the SyFy channel and I'm pretty sure I heard Sabotage used by some other channel to do the same thing. How they getting away with that? Is it because they're advertising shows as opposed to sell able product? Can't be that much of a difference.

Lawsuit imminent?
