The part that is really disconcerting is "Those contexts now include a YouTube video embedded on your blog or website, assuming your site is not "purely" non-commercial and is deemed large enough by ASCAP."
We are in serious fucking trouble if ASCAP puts the sift in the crosshairs.
Refer to source provider, ignore afterwards.
Here's some of his comments:
And so it begins. This time it's not the evil old RIAA or MPAA, it's an organization that actually makes sure content creators get paid. I love this. Soon, everyone will have to pay for every bit of content they consume. Finally.
=====================================================
Yes, more money does need to leave people's pockets. Your Internet and Cable providers are that and only that. Providers of bandwidth, not content. You don't HAVE to pay for those things, you could camp out in Starbuck's and steal the WiFi, or watch only broadcast TV. But you don't, you consume content that comes down a pipeline you also pay for. The content itself is a separate matter, and yes, you should pay for every last iota of it you consume. All of it. Every bit. Separate from the pipeline it's delivered in, it's commercial content and you need to pay for it. If you don't want to pay for it or can't afford to pay for it, then don't consume it. Where people got the idea this stuff should be free is completely beyond me.
If you are a statist you really have no room to complain here.
wow...there's this douche there called "Ricky-Oh" on this site.
Is that Ricky-Oh as in that shitty Japanese movie? Either way...the guy sounds like a douche.
