We have been using a song called 'Count in my Head' by the band 'Kids Love Lies' for our title music. We then heard the other group were planning on taking the piss out of our videos in their next one. This would be fair enough, we wrote about them on the board in our teaser trailer, but it wasn't a main part, and wasn't even shown in the actual video. As some form of passive pay-back for defacing our poster, I e-mailed 'Kids Love Lies' and asked for exclusivity rights for that song. Basically it's so if DD use the song in their video, it means that they either didn't bother to ask permission, or just used the song anyway - which they shouldn't do. Payback via technicalities = win.
