What's the definition of 'premium music videos'. Is it the official video for a song? What if someone makes their own vid with a track as backing, will that be blocked too? Reading the comments this just seems to be affecting the UK? Confusing. |

Cross posted with Ee. Does that mean that if you are in the UK you could access the vids using a proxy? Wondering how they are going to implement this.

Interesting.
According to PRS's financials, http://www.prsformusic.com/SiteCollectionDocuments/About%20MCPS-PRS/Alliance%20Financials%202007.pdf they took for themselves nearly 11% (Page 7) of Sterling£562 Million collected in 2007 (Page 9) There's a steady increase in the money they are collecting. No wonder they are so aggressive on the ground. Short-termism on speed! _____________________

It only matters if you're in England, and you're playing certain "premium" content in YouTube. Or you're in a parking garage and one of your customers is playing a radio in their car.

I like Issa's approach instead. You like, you pay. I do think it got out of hand with free downloading and I think record companies broke too many artists over the years (They Shoot Horses, Don't They?) nickel/diming them. I think artists should sell from their own websites cutting out middle men. But I also think real artists have sliding scales and things for those who love what they do. Yeh I'm one of those 'art should be free' idealists, even though I know artists gotta eat too. But some 'artists' are corporate jocks in disguise. |
