Once upon a time, it was considered totally unacceptable for musicians to even consider selling their song catalogues, but now, we see a trend of musicians, especially the senior ones, doing so. Some have cited estate planning as one of the reasons for doing this, but surely, these songs have value too and can be kept and passed on to their family members? Lawyer Foong Cheng Leong joins us on the show to share his take on this trend.
