He should have written 'not for suing' on his forehead. The record companies would then have to prove that their dubious scribbling was legal and his wasn't.

If the record company somehow does set a legal precedent that it's illegal to throw away unsolicited gifts if they have magic words written on them, I can imagine certain execs and lawyers might very quickly discover their houses full to the brim with promotional samples of manure that they can't legally dispose of.
