--> Viacom's pulling one of the biggest lawsuits in history on Google because of youtube uploads. Right now the law says that you can allow uploads on you're websight without threat of liability so long as the sight's owner removes copyrighted uploads upon request of the copyright holder. If the court rules in favor of Viacom, websights like this will be liable for huge lawsuits anytime a user uploads something that's copyrighted or has a copyrighted sample.

Is that not gay as hell? Nothing we can do, though.

i think this might start some copyright reform though..

or a new breed of haxors that post copywrited things everywhere in everyones name all the time

media giants are clawing at survival with these silly attempts to save there old way of doing buisiness,

like the record industry and drm,

its media conglomerates who are endangered species/.

This site ( S I T E ) wouldn't be in trouble, would it? We're all gay anyway Bobby, this is a site for homosexual electronic musicians who don't upload other people's music.

I can't see that getting passed.
