I'm pretty sure it was some kid who was trying to phish people, thread was in the hate section.

No, there were at least 2 threads, I deleted 2 in the last 24 hours.

What about using music in your video? Are you allowed to do that. Or is it only illegal when you try to sell your videos with music on it?

[sheepdog]

That is actually considered fair use if it is personal.
Selling, yeah you are illegal. However it is not me you need to worry about on any of this.

I have been asked by companies to remove things now and again.

The Alaskan kids seem to be repeat offenders of this.

[Philip Ontakos]

He knows these things because he actually tries to keep track of stuff which go on in the world.

I actually prefer going into target and getting the hard copy of my music. it's good.

i think that if you really want to support an artist. go to their shows and buy merch. and get others to go to their shows. artists dont get any money from the cd you buy at target. maybe 10 cents. By buying an album at a store, all you are doing is supporting a greedy record label.

i used to be in a band and still have many friends who are. its sad to see them struggling while record companies are making money off their albums.

(unless its an indie label and then you should buy the album wherever)

if you really want a cd, mosts artists sell them on their websites.

Do not paint me as the model citizen sticking up for IP rights.

Honestly, I really do not care if you do this stuff as long as it is not on BG. I am not an advocate for the industry. Far from it, greedy pricks if you ask me (fuck em'). The recording and movie industries need a massive change anyhow. If it means the death of them, so be it. They deserve it for what they are doing. They are like a deer in the headlights, they see the car coming, and know they will die, but they just stand there instead of doing something constructive, like moving. In any industry suing your customers is a desperate last act.

The problem is that discussing this stuff violates the terms of service for BG's host, same most most others, some sites are just more lax. Not to mention it could be used to nail your ass to the wall.


For the record, I think I have bought one new RIAA endorsed cd since the Metallica/Napster lawsuit (which by the way, Metallica got where they are by people trading and loaning their tapes, hypocritical assholes).
Not saying I have not bought any (a few), just none from groups or labels who are a part of that racketeering organization.
