Printable carlcranshaw said: Music industry can't force Web removal of song excerpts, judge rules
Bob Egelko, Chronicle Staff Writer Wednesday, August 20, 2008 (08-20) 19:58 PDT San Jose -- In a victory for small-time music copiers over the entertainment industry, a federal judge ruled today that copyright-holders can't order one of their songs removed from the Web without first checking to see if the excerpt was so small and innocuous that it was legal. good.. this shouldn't have gone to court in the 1st place.. the mother wasn't making any money from the video  | |

Your not making any sense with the "slave mentality" thing. Well when you say "if he doesn't want them using it, so be it" it sounds pretty much like whatever master prince says or wants is law. The point is that it's not. LOL no-I'm not saying that at all. What I AM saying though is since it IS his song-it wouldn't have been a there for anyone to enjoy in the first place. I CAN see Prince's point in this only because he created the work (ie:song) BUT I am NOT saying by any means that his word is law. I think that may just be how you interpreted it. It's all good just different opinions here.  [Edited 9/24/08 9:16am] "Sign of the times, will mess with your mind. Hurry before it's too late." Prince | |
