Where is the anal lube cuz this is nothing but another company setting up folks to get reamed. This is how the blues recording artists got ripped off, this is how modern day musicians are getting ripped off and it makes me angry.
Maybe as part of our videoblogging education process we need to start talking about the assignment of rights and full understanding of what you, I and collectively we are stepping into.
It doesn't matter if the lawyer "made them do it" or there is similar wording on other sites. It is wrong, wrong, wrong to take another's work, use it to generate viewers and income and then not cut the creator in for a slice.
And to stop the tangents and comparisons to music before it starts I am specifically talking about video and videoblogging web hosting companies.
Forget the lube, these folks would use Crisco.
