Thanks for the link Rick. Miki, great article. I generally agree with all the sentiments and thank you for writing it.
There's only one small point. The DMCA doesn't protect the likes of MyHeavy. It protects "hosts" when someone else uploads the media... That is to say if someone else uploaded the media to myheavy they'd be protected under the DMCA... but the people of myheavy themselves did this... it's willful and deliberate widespread copyright infringement done for direct profit. It's gauling. No court in their right mind would rule in their favor on this one. The bottom line is it's not a DMCA issue... it's a plain old copyright issue. They stole. It's that simple. That said I still hope something can be worked out with MyHeavy to get vloggers paid. Some sort of revenue share by which users can opt in to allowing MyHeavy to display their content. After all MyHeavy really knows what they're doing when it comes to making money of broadband content. -Mike mefeedia.com mmeiser.com/blog On 1/13/07, Rick Rey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, here: > > http://www.worldchanging.com/archives/005801.html > > > > On 1/12/07, ryanne hodson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > mikki > > is there a permalink for this? > > > > -ryanne > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > > Yahoo!
