It was to be used exclusively at a local film festival. However, when Rietveldt bought a Harry Potter DVD in 2007, he discovered his music being used in the anti-piracy ad without his permission.

*Though the lawyers certainly benefit form all of this, which allows them to keep it going indefinitely/until they win.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to take my tin foil hat in for repairs!
