i mean... is it illegal to play music in public (not counting noise disturbance)
of course the cop is evil though
It's a civil case, but technically yes.
oh ok
Playing music in public isn't illegal, if you're playing it for yourself. Playing music for the purpose of sharing it with other people would be though.
Think of it like a movie. You can watch a DVD at home no problem, but if you set up a cinema out in the park and open to the public, that would be copyright infringement. The intent is what makes the offense.
