Re: If it can't survive w/o breaking law - good riddance
Even that method might assuage some copyright holders. Of course, there will always be copyright holders who foam at the mouth whenever they see anything resembling their work online.
And there will be copyright owners who just don't care for the most part. Like Weird Al. After AOL balked at the "World Premiere" for his White & Nerdy video due to it being leaked on YouTube, he simply linked to the YouTube version from his site. The consequence was, tons of people (me for one) loved seeing the video and rushed out to buy his CD. (Ok, I haven't bought the CD yet, but it is on my "must buy" list and that's tough for a CD to get on. Few new CDs make it.) |
