As I see it (& this is what I meant when I talked about not letting
money influence my work):
1) Would Sony accept my conditions?
2) Why would Sony want to give me money under these conditions?
3) Would my audience want to see the RATMs?
Oh I can live without Sony, though I may buy a record or two from them
occasionally.

"The first man who, having enclosed a piece of ground, bethought himself of saying This is mine, and found people simple enough to believe him, was the real founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows, "Beware of listening to this impostor; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody." -J.J. Rousseau, Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, 1754
