What we NEED is a change in the idiotic law that was bought and paid for by the **AA groups - the DMCA itself. It needs to be repealed or rewritten to reflect the reality of this universe, not some dreamworld in a Galaxy Far, Far Away (can I get sued for quoting that?). Even reputable organizations are beginning to speak out against the DMCA: Death by DMCAA, published by the IEEE for one. Write your congressman, senator, governor, fifth grade English teacher and anyone else you can think of pointing out how this incredibly stupid law is: #1 - keeping great technology from being developed #2 - causing great technology to have to be recalled from the shelves #3 - simply making the MPAA/RIAA richer in giving them a tool with which to threaten people with and make them settle up out of court because they can't afford to hire legal defense (legalized extortion as I see it). #4 - making it a real headache to share your copyrighted materials online OK, skip #4 - but beat them over the head with #s 1, 3 and 3. | |

The RIAA does not recognize fair-use, or any fair-use doctrine what-so-ever.
It is the position of the RIAA that there is no such thing a fair-use, under any circumstance or at any time.
It is the position of the RIAA that its policies and edicts supersede international, federal or state law.
It is the position that all (recorded) music comes under the prevue of the RIAA regardless of source, ownership, content, status, or will of its creator. | |

Re: RIAA policy is that fair-use not recognized, ever.HEY!
No it's not. The RIAA is NOT the ONLY LEGAL SOLUTION to get your art covered by copyright. They are funded by the majors. There's the whole Indie world out there as well, and the creative commons. www.creativecommons.org
www.anyhow.net www.downhillbattle.org
lets get these idiots out of a job and take the majors over with the creative commons new copyright and licensing model and f**k them deep.

Re: oh brothersaid by zipjay:ohh brother! before you know it their gonna sue people who make home videos where people just so happen to be playing a copyrighted song on a stereo or something in the background.. re-read the article and you will see that this is already being done: "Project Opus claims the warnings are even being applied to videos of amateur dancers who are getting their groove on to copyrighted music." | |

In the RIAA's view...someone posting a video of their kid's birthday party would be subject to getting a letter (thanks to the fact that "Happy Birthday" remains copyrighted because of the absurd extension of copyright that Disney and the Bonos pushed for.) I wonder if THAT's happened yet...

You owe usSoon the RIAA/MPAA is going to try and bill us if we happen to hear/see copyrighted material being played in someone elses (insert audio/vidio playing device here).
They will expect everyone to wear earplugs/eye covers 24x7 in order to avoid being prosecuted for illegally listening to copyrighted material.
Then they will shove tubes down our throat, directly interface to our brain, and plunge us into bathtubs full of thermal collecting goop, while we slip into a virtual world of their design, and control.
Ok so maybe not that last part just yet. | |

No they will force you to declare the situations in which you want to play music at any time and estimate how many people will be able to hear it. Then make you pay a fee for every person. So listening with head phones will be a couple of bucks , and listening on a boom box at the beach will cost a few thousand dollars. | |

Seem to be going too far hereYea, I do agree they seem to be going too far here. I do understand how things are copyrighted, but to punish people using a medium to express their love for a paticular song is pretty rediculous. Especially since its a medium where you can not download any of the content (its in a somewhat protected format)....and the fact that it isnt being sold either. They are just trying to alienate everyone. | |

Look on the good sideDue to all of the publicity, 90% of internet users now know exactly where to get their free music.
Why don't we ever hear the RIAA talk about Usenet?
I presume that because of the RIAA a London UK radio station that I used to listen to Heart 102.6 has stopped broadcasting to USA IP addresses. Personally I feel quite disgusted about that situation. If I was stinking rich I might feel like starting a law suit over the situation. Listening to a radio staion over the internet is not even closely related to selling or trading songs on the internet. My listening is not reducing royalty to any artist by 1 cent.
Radio waves (at least short wave) reach the USA from all sorts of other countries so maybe the RIAA will get foreign stations to reduce their power if their radio waves are reaching the USA | |

RIAA/MPAA are very well aware of UseNet's existence. I believe they are also aware of the fact that aside from shutting down a few NZB indexing sites (only to have a few dozen new ones pop up to replace them), they can't do sh*t about it. | |

That's probably not the RIAA directly, but indirectly via rightsholders complaining. Too many old media companies still cling to demanding exclusive rights for a given country/city/whatever, a concept which doesn't make any sense on the Internet (it's rather easy to get around IP restrictions via proxies/VPNs/etc.) and makes life difficult for travelers, expats, and others who seek out non-local media for the truly local content (news, shows not aired in the local city/country, and so on) they offer. -SC | |

my RIAA rantThe RIAA seems to forget that amateurs dancing to copyrighted music is perfectly legal, under fair use laws. The amateurs in question are not SELLING their videos and trying to make a profit, so therefore the RIAA legally can not do anything about it. This would change if the dancers had an ad at the end of their video promoting their pay site or whatever, that would then be a violation of copyright law.
Of course when you have Congress in your pocket, you can pretty well do whatever you want, regardless of what the Constitution says... | |

I'm down with it !Hey if it's copyright protected music, software, etc. then I'm all for prosecuting the Pirates to the full degree of the law which in the U.S. at least is $10,000 per copy plus jail time. I say hang all the scumbag Pirates. | |

So...The person buys a video camera, a cd with his favorite song and decides to make a cool video. RIAA says he's not allowed to play that song or any song i'm guessing while making a video.
How lame.
I can see whats coming next. After you purchase your new video camera, you will have to connect it to the internet so it can be configured by the RIAA/MPAA to have certain rights. | |

Re: So...said by PunkGod:The person buys a video camera, a cd with his favorite song and decides to make a cool video. RIAA says he's not allowed to play that song or any song i'm guessing while making a video. If you plan on distributing that video on the internet or any other form you can get in trouble. However if you make a private video for viewing in your own home, (i.e. not for distribution, even for free.) then there is not much they can do. However, if you make a copy for a family member you can get in trouble. Now if the music is just in the back ground and really not part of what is going on in the video, you might be ok. But, when they make a movie and there is a song playing in the back ground, the makers of that movie have to pay royalties for that song. Of course they plan on making money, but making money is not required for the RIAA to protect their clients property rights. If you were to post the video on youtube for public viewing then you would be gaining recognition for your work on the video. So would you like it if someone were to take the video you made, and were to do something with it to make money and not give you any? Or what if they used it in a manner you disliked. Oh and youtube sells advertising on their website. When users post their videos using other peoples music, then they are capitalizing on others copyrights. They are making money on others intellectual rights. So the point is, turn the TV off or mute it. (if it is a music video) Please note it would be better to turn it off because if you video tape the video you could get popped too.. lol | |
|

Re: So...I see the same contention with P2P regarding this as well. That is not for profit distribution that doesn't affect the livelihood of the artist in question is still deemed not to be copyright infringement. The RIAA hasn't gotten a significant victory on any individual sharing music online. I see even less success trying to get a judgement against a video of little Timmy's birthday party that happens to have Celene Dion playing in the background. | |

I'm not surprisedRemember years ago, when the Girl Scouts were sued? Somehow the RIAA was informed that at the camps, the girls were singing around the campfire. Singing *copyrighted* songs. Now I believe that the Girl Scouts have effectively banned music from any of their functions.
Actually, I believe it was a recruitment video. And I think the song was 'This Land Is Your Land'. | |
