Bob Dylan to sell his entire songwriting catalogue.

I guess the times are a changing. I was thinking of posting this under entertainment but I think this qualifies as news, even for those who are not Bob Dylan fans. Seems like the passing of the torch sort to speak.

I hope it isn't Time Life, I was hoping to see late movies on TV again, especially paid TV.

Guess that means Dylan songs will soon be featured in commercials. Great. As long as he makes a buck off them, that's okay. Just how much money does he need? Is nothing sacred anymore?

The songs are HIS. Is that sacred anymore? I love Dylan and his work, but they are not sacred.

I agree but I am wondering if he wanted to make sure his catalog was taken care of the way he wanted before anything happens to him. Just speculation on my part.

I just heard on the news he has sold it to Universal Music for at least 300 million.

He is considered a great writer but the man can't sing! A good friend of my BFF toured with Dylan. I told my BFF to ask her how she could stand it.
