Dutch Collection Society Backs Down Slightly On Video Embeds
from the but-not-really dept
Dennis Laumen alerts us to an update on the story concerning Dutch music collection society Buma/Stemra's plan to charge bloggers for embedding YouTube videos on their site. After the story got lots of publicity, Buma appears to have backed down ever so slightly, saying that "amateur" bloggers are off the hook. But, the definition of "amateur" is basically only if you don't have any ads. Put up some Google AdSense... and suddenly you're a "pro" who has to pay up.Filed Under: collection society, embeds, netherlands, performance, youtube videos

All other aspects of the business must be subordinated to this superior goal.
