Re: Maybe it will die, but.. Hey Karl ever watch a sporitng event on TV. At the end of the broadcast it CLEARLY says
"Any rebroadcast, reproduction or other use of this game without the express written consent of Major League Baseball( or NFL, NBA , NHL ) is prohibited"
which part of PROHIBITED is too complicated for you to understand? |

As a viewer, they give you a license to use their content, and as long as it is allowed by law, they can set whatever terms they wish. You can't just watch whatever you want without being bound by any sort of license terms. |

Not a valid case. The warning must be broadcast BEFORE the game (Like the warning when you play a DVD) or it is the same as a "Shrink Wrap" License. Claiming a restriction after the game (and the actual recording has been done [such as recording for time shifted viewing later]) is-not/should-not-be enforceable since you remove the rights you have granted after the fact. |
