^I didn't know that. I'll be using that option - but re: above, can you actually insert your own music in on Xbox? How? Directories are obviously easy on a PC but I'm not sure I know how to do that on a console.

No, but they never covered this, obviously because it's pretty obscure. And the IP course just does patents, TM's and copyright.

Anyway after a brief jaunt through westlaw apparently there is such a right in Canada but it is more limited, in that it doesn't apply unless the likeness is appropriated in such a manner as to imply that the individual (i.e. the player) is endorsing the product. I don't know that putting someone in a hockey game implies that they're endorsing the game, but it's possible it could be a problem.

Not that it matters, because if it's a thing for the U.S., that's game over. Still, mystery resolved.
