One of the main problems is that artists often don't own the copyright of their 
recordings. 
(in the case of music) .  Their record comapany does.  The artist may or may 
not retain 
publishing rights but in most cases the "recording" is owned by the record 
company. 

That's why you don't see many artist's suing anyone...

Shawn Fanning (the Napster guy) has a new company called Snocap to facilitate 
licensing 
and copyright management.  It looks interesting...

2006-03-19 Thread jonny goldstein


I hear what you're saying, Andrew. Often, I have the same
feeling---"If only they didn't use copyrighted music." 

My personal preference is to use my friends' music, create my own, or
use CC or public domain stuff, largely because I don't want the
controversy, and I have confidence in making something good without it.  

I think we're in agreement that using copyrighted stuff without
permission does not necessarily detract from the quality of the media
that gets made.
In some cases, the resulting work is very powerful, like Zadi's Greeen
Day/Katrina mashup.

So I feel like we should do something to change the laws, so people
can use copyrighted material without the controversy, at least in some
contexts. Maybe by finding an easy way to pay the artist whose work it
is, or by being allowed to use it for non-commercial purposes, or
something. I don't know the exact method, but I really don't like the
current situation. 

As long as technology makes it easy to copy and sample, people will do
it. And regulating technology to make it hard to copy and sample
hamstrings technological progress, so I  hope that does not happen
(it's already happening and it sucks). So let's change the laws so
huge chunks of the population aren't made into criminals, and so
entire families of art (collage, audio sampling, video remixing) can
come out of the shadows.

One of the coolest things about Lessig's book is that he released it 
under a Creative Commons license, which allowed other to use it, so a 
bunch of folks got together and recorded themselves reading chapters, 
and a freely available audio version was quickly made:

I know that, in the art world, artists are allowed to use copyrighted materials in their work - at least, they have since I last did. In Canada, the right of the artist to use pop culture iconography as critique has held. Could be changing soon though, the way things are going.
I find it interesting that videobloggers are categorized under the same rules as filmmakers and not artists when it comes to copyright enforcement. how does one tell the difference when it comes to videoblogs?
One thing that may present a problem is when a videographer uses a song, for example, as a soundtrack and it is not a critique of any kind and does not add to the video's narrative but serves only as musical accompaniment. That doesn't constitute fair use. That just constitutes use.
I have seen videos that have used "illegal" content (images, audio) that I would fight to protect from being shut down because the content serves an important function within the context of the video's narrative.
It's a murky issue.On 3/18/06, andrew michael baron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Beyond Fair Use:

I have an unpostulated hypothesis if there is such a concept that the  
use of copyrighted music in online videos by personal publishers  
tends to restrict interest in the content at hand and ultimately  
slows any natural distribution that might otherwise occur.

When I see a great video created by someone with copyrighted music, I  
usually become disappointed that the video has that flaw. I think it  
a flaw. At least its a controversy, likely unrelated to the content  
at hand and thus distracting. The flaw is not attached to the  
content. If the music were properly licensed or used legally, the  
flaw would be gone.

Some people's flaws are other people's perfections, sometimes, though  
with regard to the blatant use of copyrighted material, beyond fair  
use, there is a problem circling around that content and so, I guess  
feeling-wise, I just can't ever be with complete comfort about it, no  
matter how great some content might otherwise be.

Yes, media companies rarely go after people for using their
copyrighted material, so most people are safe, most of the time.
However there are huge harms created by the current legal structures.

 Take the after school program I run with dozens of teenagers. We're
videoblogging. If those kids were at home making their own stuff, they
would probably use copyrighted stuff w/no problem, but since they  are
doing it from a big after school program, from a school, within the
NYC school system, it doesn't work that way. An individual can get
away with things on her own that won't work if she is working from
within an institution, because institutions don't want to be on the
end of massive legal penalties. So I can't let the kids remix the
media they eat, drink, and breath unless it's under very narrow "fair
use" conditions (and even that's a crapshoot. The only way to
determine fair use is to litigate it, and that's very expensive). That
is lame

So you can flout the laws, from your own home, but students can't. 

This is ridiculous. It's time for the vast majority of media users 
and makers 
(everyone but the big media companies) to expend some energy to
influence the government to create a more reasonable legal situation
so we can participate in our culture, legally, and fully.

SXSW Darknets Panel - was Re: [videoblogging] Re: T Y V M

2006-03-18 Thread jonny goldstein


I think it is complete b.s. that people can't legally remix the
culture around them without the kind of friction the current system
presents.
.
I encourage everyone to get political about this. We are an interest
group. I don't know if we should band together to create a lobby, or
support existing organizations like the Electronic Frontier
Foundation, but let's do our bit to influence the debate on this stuff.

If you haven't already, I recommend checking out "Free Culture" by
Laurence Lessig from your local library to get a snapshot of where the
legal system is today regarding I.P., how it got there,  and how it
could be changed for the better.

Then JD's book, "Darknet" gives a glimpse of what is actually
happening as people use technology to share and remix despite the
legal maneuvers of the big media lobbies. Also available from your
local library. 

Time to change the system.

Paul,You're not a bad person and you're probably right that you will likely never receive a take-down notice or any nasty notes from Lawyers. But, if you ever wanted to do more with your work, you probably would have to clear the rights for the soundtracks. I'm not saying its right or wrong, but that's the current status of things. I've worked in TV stations, and its very typical that we had to reject certain works that we would have loved to pick up for distribution due to issues like this. There are whole industries built around the clearances of rights, and believe me they don't take these things lightly.
It may all be off the radar now and for a long time to come. Obviously its impossible to track down everything that exists onine. But, if you're dealing with distributors who need to care about these things (and someone's job is probably devoted to it), then it really does become an issue.

Ok I am now gonna have my two penneth's worth, I have read some real
scare mongering stories here from folks who live in the country that
invented "the sue me and i'll sue you state".
I am sick and tired of reading this crap.
Firstly shall we look at bands who are trying to hit the big time who
havent go record deals. They play the club circuitBritish working
mens clubs I know I was part of that scene. The punters did not want
to hear your own material, they just wanted to hear the standards, the
hits of the day. I dont remember our agent or our manager seeking the
permission off Northern songs or any other publishing company for that
matter. If it is that much of a problem here most of the up and coming
British bands and singers would not be up and coming any more due to
legal costs.. i may I say that they are getting paid for entertaining
people using other folks material.The club is licensed for live music
but are the bands allowed to cover material that is not
theirs..naughty , naughty...The club circuit is strong and healthy and
is a breeding ground for the next Westlife, Michael Jackson etc. All
those with any talent that appeared on X factor and pop idol trod the
same path.
if the bmi were that interested they would be raiding these clubs ..In
the same vain there is the local youth club or the wedding party where
music is played without being licensed to play

i agree that there some interesting 'statements' being made

Broadband video is a multibillion dollar industry that Hollywood,
networks and record companies are in the process of getting into. 
Unless their copyright policies change, it's just a matter of time
before they start prosecuting those that infringe their copyright and
trademark usage.  Recommending people do that puts those that follow
such advice in potential jeopardy.  It's fine if you want to do that,
but don't recommend others take the liability.  Particularly when
there are talented musicians on sites like http://magnatune.com/
willing to have their music available for just attribution to
podcasters and videolbloggers.  They can use the exposure, regardless
of how small, rather pop hits known by millions.

Arrrghhh! Shiver Mi Timbers!  File sharing p2p or darknet or news groups is bad.  Bad for the record companies and artist and consumers, I thought we were discussing the using snipets of copyrighted music in videoblogs, not who uses p2p like limewire or etcI listened to all the future of darknet interviews, and found nothing but people wanting to make money or get rich off either using music in order to make money, or people sharing in a p2p or darknet.  But hey at the end of the day, who is making money out of videoblogging, using blip.tv, the archive and dailymotion.  I am not paying for any thing on line and subsequently I don't get nothing in the way of money for my works.I still think, the use of copyrighted material in videoblogs that make no money and flies beneath the radar of the MPAA or RIAA.  Then hey why not.  All they want to police is the use of copyrighted protected data thru copying and pirating.If it was the policy of these free video site to implement the law on copyrighted music in videos (Videoblogs) maybe it should be policed in the same way as pronography.  But I doubt that would happen either.By the way I don't share anything on a p2p or newgroups or darknet network.  I merely make funny little films with bits of music I have in my own CD library.Paul KnightOn 18 Mar 2006, at 17:06, Enric wrote:  --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Paul Knight <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Sage words there, >  > However, Remember the Self Emptying Bin Video that I sent to the BBC   > for their website, it had 3 snippets of copyrighted music including   > 'The Great Escape', 'Psycho' and 'Jaws',  The BBC had the choice of   > whether to publish the silent one which I sent and the one with the   > music.  If the BBC can't see a problem then why should we? > Not to mention that Wake Me Up When September Ends Video from last   > year with TV news footage and the whole of the track by Green Day,   > that one got a bit of coverage in the papers as I recall. >  > Maybe British Law is a bit different perhaps?  I doubt whether, the   > RIAA or MPAA is watching any of our videos, because as a community we   > are still pretty small. >  >   From http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/01/27/1552240&from=rss :    An anonymous reader writes "Two British men have been found guilty of illegally sharing music via a P2P network.

However,
Remember the Self Emptying Bin Video that I sent to the BBC for their
website, it had 3 snippets of copyrighted music including 'The Great
Escape', 'Psycho' and 'Jaws',  The BBC had the choice of whether
to publish the silent one which I sent and the one with the
music.  If the BBC can't see a problem then why should we?
Not certain, but they probably pay a blanket license for all the stuff that plays on the beeb.

SXSW Darknets Panel - was Re: [videoblogging] Re: T Y V M

2006-03-18 Thread jonny goldstein
The more into vlogging I get, the more convinced I am that this stuff
is so important. I just read Lessig's "Free Culture," JD's "Darknet,"
checked out the EFF site and other resources. 

I understand that the media giants are scared, and I think they should
be. They are basically huge teams of lawyers, accountants, Marketers,
and MBA's who hire temps (directors, actors, writers, etc.) to make
projects. They use the legal system as their point of leverage. but
technology is making that system ineffective. I think I read that at
this point around 60 million people have illegally downloaded music.
That's not a system that's working.

I spend a good bit of my time chasing my students around telling them
not to use copyrighted music w/the videos they post on our website.

What I tell them is that, this is the law now, and if you don't like
it, work to change it. But when they go home to vlog from  there, I'm
sure most will do what they want.

I don't know how we get a more reasonable IP situation going, but I
think panels like this are great. At least we are having a discussion. 

Thanks for putting this up JD.

If anyone thinks "oh they wont come after me", think again. My
internet radio station had a relatively small listener base. The
station didnt make any money at all. No advertising. No donations.
Nothing. The majority of the music played was indie music. On
occasion, a DJ would mix it up and throw in a more popular tune.

First, the RIAA threatened me. Then, they came after me.

The end result? I dont run an internet radio station anymore.

It is not a good recommendation that people use copyrighted material
