you have to understand the rights of individuals are secondary to the rights of business in the usa
First, the photo I post is cropped. Second, it has a watermark with my company's name
and google/youtube is a usa business
very VERY faintly, hidden in a shadow.
I agree, Corporatism is a problem.
thats why im saying youtube is in trouble because i think youtube will have to face giving the power of indiscriminent bots to the hands of copyright enforcers or have those enforcers try to get safe harbor pulled out from under them and the reason this is even a problem is because youtube is creating more and more accurate bot ai's to monitor youtube for their revinue stream
the best case scenario youtube has is the former and i dont think we have any idea just how much that will change things
most of my music playlists wil lbe gone im sure
I think I see your point.
Youtube being TOO MUCH of an information company should theoretically open it up to litigation...?
i think so
Also, probably not as far as the music thing goes
they DO already have a copyright bot as far as music goes
at some point they will have perfect control of the curation of the platform, so other people will want that for their own interests and have legal means to fight for it
I actually had a correspondence with 'CD Baby', a sync license company, on this matter.
their music bot is terrible then
I was wanting to use a song by Shawn James for a project
because i know the stuff i listen to isint public archive
those bots will get better
I asked them about getting a license to use it. One of the things they told me was that I could just use their music
and the money from that video would go directly to them instead of to me
and the fight between transformitive media and lawyers who dont give a shit will never end
so the bots getting more accurate isint a good thing in my opinion
hell, right now I'm working on licenses with BMI, ASCAP, and SESAC for my radio station
The interesting thing is
not in the american context atleast
all of these holding companies operate a little differently.
It's a nightmare when it comes to reporting, believe me...
But yeah
interesting thing... if you go on to Youtube
watch for a couple of things. 'Vevo' accounts are official music on Youtube.
As well as '[Band name] - Topic' pages.
the Topic pages are usually CD-baby.
I haven't looked in to it, but I think VEVO is associated with Harry Fox Agency.
mmm, maybe not
but yeah...
Ah
Vevo is owned in part by Sony Music, Universal Music Group, Abu Dhabi Media, Alphabet Inc., and Warner Music Group.
Bypasses HFA and CDB
