How many hundreds? Because I don't think many would take exception to the statement that Shakespeare was a great playwright, but, see, Shakespeare rehashed an awful lot of others' stories.
So let's see: we're not even using the "norm" here--we're using the pinnacle as an example of how this is completely wrong. Also: Milton, Homer, more.

"The vast majority do in fact "do without" and love it. We don't pirate or copy or rip and we also don't buy."
Exactly. And we stream. Who needs to own anything anymore? And it's not like I'm the one who set up Spotify's royalty rates or anything, so I kind of don't want to hear it. I suffer through the ads and that's goddamned enough.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Carve your own path and think for yourself.
So wait: which one is the sarcastic post? Is it the one I replied to just now, the one above that you seem to be referencing, or the one below here?
I mean, I got the Obama thing. That was inane, and thanks for hipping me to it unnecessarily. But I'm still hung up on the "it's pathetic to shill like that" thing. Can you work me around that one?
This is very astute. It's like gambling--when you dig yourself a hole the size of your house, car and next year's wages at the roulette table, you're sure that the next spin will restore it all and even bring you some extra cash.
Really? That's the best "first" you could come up with? Hey first: guess who drafted the excellent anti-SLAPP law that's going to work against this numbskull? Lawyers who recognized the need to protect people's freedom of speech. Guess who's going to work that law in Inman's favor to slap the taste out of the idiot's mouth? A lawyer.
Please, for the love of g-d, come up with something, anything to say with some substance to it. Being first is a rare opportunity, and you've utterly wet the bed.
I'm from the planet where cops have a device that can pull all data from a smartphone simply by plugging that device into the phone and pressing a button. You're from the same planet, because that device exists and the cops have them.
"Stop filming" makes you think that he was concerned the evidence might be destroyed or harmed? Don't you think that "be careful and make sure you get all of this" would have made his point a little better, in that case?
That's great. So he should sue Mega to get his stuff back, despite the complete impossibility of that remedy? Much better that than going to the only party capable of giving him what he rightfully owns and wrongfully lost, especially when that same party is the one who lost it for him.
That's the FDA that okayed Vioxx, right? The same one that fast-tracks Big Pharma's pets? Citing "the history of the FDA's creation" over and over is the worst way to make this case. There was, and still is, a problem that the FDA was intended to solve. It didn't solve it. So, now, that didn't work--stop pretending that the problem should lead to more solutions like the bad one and come up with something better.
It's amazing what some talent and forethought get you as an artist. I'll buy her stuff without question--because she lets me listen to it to find out if I want it.
Ditto re the movies. I stopped going around the time they started suing everyone for P2P...and not for that reason. I stopped going because their output is crap. No surprise that they developed this extortionate "alternate business model" around the same time.
Exactly: you've copied too little to qualify for time-shifting. I guess fair use considerations of the amount of a work that's copied is about to experience a seismic shift as well: unless you copy an entire work, your use is not fair.
That's not what the CAFC said. It said that its holding here did not mean that listing the use of the Internet would be "either necessary or sufficient IN EVERY CASE." But...that it was sufficient here. So, as it turns out, the CAFC did hold that HERE, the "use of the Internet" was enough. Comport?

I can't wait for these posts to be sourced for the litigation, and to see who their author is. It's just too wonderful.
Sometimes schadenfreude is a guilty pleasure.

Good enough for you? Seem like a better solution than reaching into a woman's bra for her phone while her hands are cuffed behind her?
