Music Lobby has suicidal tendences?

The music industry has been lobbying the the governments all around the would for decades. They want ti make us see that listen to a song without paying the rights is a felony. It is not. Intellectual property rights are not natural or constitutional rights. They are nothing more than a interference in our liberties, justified only if it is strictly necessary to the goal of fostering invention and creativity. Nevertheless, it need to be strictly justified and is not a matter of property or poor musicians dying in the streets.
They even want to commit suicide, lobbying so radio stations would be forced to pay fees for playing their songs. Are this guy completely out of their mind? They want to kill all the free publicity and marketing they recieve for being played at the radio?. Who knows what they want. Besides more and more money earned by decree.
