Shrdlu Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 Doesn't that steam you! Arrogant bullying by Mr Viacom. YouTube is real cool, and totally harmless in my opinion. Lots of friendly people there, and it's a lot of fun. I doubt that Viacom is losing anything because of YouTube. YouTube is a kind of online version of having friends over, or hanging with them in the street. I bet the whole thing gets thrown out of court. I would, if I were de Judge. Watch out, soon it will be an offense to have some people over to listen to some sounds. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 Technically it already is. Any time you play a recording, that's a "performance" and if anyone who doesn't own the recording is in earshot, they owe royalties. Quote
