This is a normal post it's a piece of software that listens to your voice as you sing
then builds a track around it. the bandwagon right now is to play accapellas of well known songs through it. it's a free download from here:
asia.cnet.com/downloads/pc/swinfo/0,39000587,50002358r-39580108s,00.htm

there's a lot of potential with this thing, but as c_kick suggested, we might be ushering in a new era of unimaginable shite.

This is a normal post So if I write and release
a song that goes to number 1 in the charts and makes a small fortune using songsmith, who owns the rights? Me or microsoft?

This is a normal post you own the song.
the track itself is probably microsoft owned, with your writing credits. essentially you'd still get the royalties, unless microsoft objected. i doubt they would, though, as it'd be a massive PR disaster.
if you wrote a song using nothing but a drum machine as backing, it'd be more or less the same thing.

This is a normal post The only bits of a song
that count towards copyright ownership are the words and melody, which you are providing in this case.

Sometimes a really distinctive musical hook might count, such as the guitar in 'Satisfaction' by the Rolling Stones, but I doubt that would happen here.
