The first one(s) I've asked a nubmer of times, but no one will EVER give a clear answer on, so hopefully Roger or Doug can clear this up:
We know limited editions are lower so to keep re-use fees down, but he label can only make that many. Let's take "Predator", for example, which SOLD OUT at Varese Sarabande.
What is to stop them from, if they wanted to, to again print it limited?
eBay shows it's clearly selling, and selling for high amounts each time.
And if the answer is they cannot, for what ever reason, what's to stop another label from doing a limited edition?

Next one:
Say a composer owns the rights to their score. If they own the rights, as long as one doesn't use artwork or images from the film, would someone need to deal with the studio and the lawyers at all?
Would re-use fees apply to a score where the composer maintained the rights?
Just asking.
