Well actually Moby works for the Bush administration so it’s just a normal step. The site will help catch criminals who have certainly already violated copyrights before coming to this site.

But Moby makes a very good point!!! Filming copyrighted material… isn’t it breaking the original copyright of those products. I’m not talking in terms of the current Laws which are obviously flawed and written to protect the Entertainment industry. So were do you draw the line, and how should you allow others to use your work for other purposes than what your work was intended.

If using just a section of a movie, or a modified photography, or a portion of a music, how much are you violating that copyright??

Good night!

This is a VERY needed service. I do a lot of music inspired videos. In fact ALL my videos from the past 10 yrs. have been music themed. However even for non-commercial work, it has been a fine line when using commercial music. I’ve resorted to writing my own music when absolutely required, but I don’t have the time to do that and the video.

I only with the site was a bit faster. Even when launched, it was slow. Sometimes to the extent that it is unusable.
