Sam Bisbee: Music Licensing King

Went to Stereogum and learned that Cat Power had covered the Nerves'/Blondie song "Hanging on the Telephone" for a Cingular commercial. Looking for it on the Matador board, I then discover that Sam Bisbee produced it. According to his last news update, he's now licensing or releasing songs with MTV/Acuvue, CVS, Sundance, and GM in addition to his Cingular gig. And he doesn't even have a label. This guy could teach a course in the music licensing business.
