- 20:24Speaker 1: that hospital. I was as I was reading it said
- 20:27Speaker 1: that the copyright ownership is complex today, which I'm assuming
- 20:36Speaker 1: just means there's been fights recently over who gets those rights,
- 20:41Speaker 1: who gets to keep them, and who profits from them.
- 20:43Speaker 1: I'm sure.
- 20:43Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, well, hopefully the hospital keeps getting
