Re: [videoblogging] Re: grass roots bootleg protection

[Paul Knight]

I can relate to this arguement. It is also always polite to ask if the band if they would like to filmed and distributed, if they don't, what the hey, it's their loss.  Last Saturday I went into Nottingham and caught my old friend Sam Lindo busking in the street, he plays guitar and sings, he knows me from old and I asked him if he wanted a little exposure and he said "OK," so I shot the video and posted it the same day.  I have had 66 views on Dailymotion and 19 on blip.tv so far.  Serveral hundred people less than walked passed him on a busy Saturday afternoon.  So there is both sides of the coin for you. So in conclusion, it doesn't matter really if a band or singer wants to be filmed for bootleg purposes or not.  Only a small percentage people will actually watch it on line, compared with the potential audience they already had on the day.
