Stale news, but interesting: Labels: copyright, microsoft, pussycat dolls, youtube
Jeremy Toeman received a notice from UMG regarding his posting of a video on YouTube that included copyrighted content (U2's Beautiful Day) in the background. The offer from the copyright owner, facilitated through YouTube, basically said, go ahead and leave the video up if you wish, but we'll be showing advertising on it.
To some this might sound heavy-handed; to others, a nice compromise. I tend to think the latter. As Toeman writes, "I'm basically being encouraged by a copyright owner to user their content for my purposes (fun) and yet meet their basic business needs as well (profit)."
