LOL I like it! 
Hey, according to that we fall under the fair use clause. Yay, we're not quite so illegal!
(but then again, as it said, the "fair use" clause isn't legal, it's just a way to get out of the charges in court. Lovely. |

I commented this to the poster in response:
| Quote: | on behalf of all vidders-thank you! I don’t get the huff about fanvidding. The thing is...we're not making any $ off the vids...we're sort of PROMOTING the music and the source of the clips we use, so we're ADVERTISING for these copyright owners w/out being paid. What's the big friggen deal? Most of the music I use is from local bands from whom I DID get permission and they were flattered that I used their stuff. All they wanted in return was credit in my vid, which I gave.
...the short of it: thanks for posting this. |
In addition, some vidders even buy highly expensive video editing programs in order to do so, so to be honest, some of us are LOSING money to advertise their music, movies, and television shows. So, to them, I say...quitcher bitchin! 
Seriously. In a way, we're doing THEM a favor by vidding. I can honestly say that vidding is (indirectly) what got me into Supernatural and what keeps me watching Lost even though I hate it...mainly, in the sense that, if I wasn't a vidder and I didn't know you guys, then I wouldn't bother keeping up with the show just to still have something in common with you all, since I love you all so much. /sap.
Really, though, good find, Ais; thanks for sharing it
