Atlantic Records did something similar to someone with a Led Zeppelin
site, not sure which site it was, since there are so many out there
(led-zeppelin.org, led-zeppelin.com etc) but the webmaster wasn;t too
happy. The worst part was that the 3 remaining band members really had no
say, it was a record company owned by a giant company that did
this......they had no choice but to give in. (Atlantic is owned by Warner
Brothers.... aka AOL/Time-Warner)
