Exploitation
10.0 Exploitation
As we have seen, the publisher is under an obligation to exploit the writer’s songs. If the writer delivers a song which he does not intend to record himself then the writer should try to bring some pressure to bear upon the publisher to make an effort to find some other use for the song. Moreover, the writer should not lose sight of the machinery in the contract which enables the writer in certain circumstances to require unexploited songs to be reassigned.
