He wouldn't have given a toss unless it infringed on his cut of the market, then he would have sent his heavies around. 
There is always some cnut around trying to screw some cash out of anyone with the money to waste. The best way to limit any market is to flood it with free for all equivalents, or exact copies(if flac). Then it's only the cash rich, or the deprived of access to the free, and I mean FREE, market that are limited to what is in the "public domain".
Once it is out there, it is out there, for all the sharks to feed upon, so forget any thoughts of control.

Over the last two years, tens of thousands of old radio programs have been made available over the Web in the downloadable MP3 format, free to anyone with a computer and an Internet connection. All these programs are in the public domain".
