Giving rave reviews to "Nothing to Fear", the [4]latest in a [5]long line
of so-called [6]illegal music, he also describes a "'major label waveform
CD database,' which is capable of recognizing materials allegedly owned
by the record label cartel." This database is allegedly why a UK pressing
plant rejected the initial attempt at publishing "Nothing To Fear", which
is comprised almost entirely of sampled material."
