No, there never is.
In a way, I was hoping that those 37 seconds would give AR Rahman a bit of exposure to audiences who probably don't know him. From the opening bars of Lagaan, I thought "This composer is amazing! He should be working in Hollywood!" Andrew Lloyd Weber and a few others agreed, and I'm very much looking forward to hearing his work (co-composer) on the new "Lord of the Rings" musical. The snippet they used to have on the website was amazing.

Obviously, things are not as they should be. We all know that... and I believe that at the very heart, this ongoing media revolution is nothing but letting the market decide what's right and wrong instead of corporate players. So, whatever your policy is Dierdre, I don't think there is a black-or-white explanation.
