I spent a coupla years doing a Bond theme in midi and writing a solo to it, then the friggin Harry Fox Agency said I couldn't post it.
They wanted like, $3500 a year for the rights.
Same thing with the theme song to the Thunderbirds.

There's another one I've wanted to do for years called 'Outa Space' by Tony Hatch from an old 60's TV show, but nobody knows who owns the copyright.
In fact, I don't think anybody else has ever heard it before.

Sometimes, copyright rules suck the big one.
