Some followup here...
So, if WB hears a release from RDJ they don't like, technically they don't
have to license it. I guess if they think it will sell buckets, they'll
release it. But a licensing deal would be of minimal risk to WB, unless the
contract/deal states they will license X releases from Warp in Y length
of a time period. In that case, near the end of the time period, they
might be pushed to license stuff or cough up cash.
Will "Donkey Rhubarb" make a US cd single? Hrm...
