Well in the article it's pretty clear. The people who produced the video did not want it shared.

While what you suggest is a good scenario for the movie/music industry, what about the person who watches a whole movie through an embedded clip (or in the case of porn, 5 minutes of it), and then doesn't buy it because, well, they already saw it? Not only that, but the site hosting the embed gets views and clicks…

I'm not a lawyer, but what I got from the article was that Vidster was allowing people to embed illegally copied videos that were hosted on other sites. If you illegally got ahold of a Justin Bieber video that had not yet been released, hosted it on one site, and embedded it on another, you better believe his label…

That is the whole point of this. Not all video is under copyright though (don't know about Shane Dawson), and not all copyright owners would go through the trouble to prosecute you for posting their video. In the article above however, Flava Works did not want their videos posted or embedded, so they asked vidster…

I don't see how that makes a difference. Nobody had permission from the copyright holder to post it anywhere. Just because you "credit" the copyright holder doesn't mean you have permission to post it somewhere.

no, it would be playing a movie you don't have the right to play on your tv, and putting it on your front porch.

But that isnt the same. To use your example, it would be someone else's yard sale selling stolen items, in your yard.

So if I buy a car stereo from a guy on the street corner, I'm not responsible if that stereo was stolen, just because I didn't know it?

Could someone explain to me why this WOULDN'T be copyright infringement? Why do people think they are entitled to do whatever they want with someone else's work?

So the blog that you whine about being Apple fanboys post a fairly scathing article pointing out a fatal flaw in the latest and greatest iPhone, and all you can do is point out a grammar error?

That Dr. Bronner's is only about 8 bucks at Trader Joe's. I refill my hand soap dispensers with it mixed with equal parts water, one bottle lasts me for months.

@kevin.r.day: does that mean you are an Android and a developer?

Terrestrial radio stations have spent the last two years building up their "Facebook presence", all the while building up the network that will eventually take away their listeners and advertisers.

@vinod1978: Careful, they don't all work, got burned on a cheapy A/V cable that my iPhone won't recognize.

You said hardwood, heh heh heh.

@Old Gil: more like a yeast infusion

From what I can tell from the website, "killer" has no release date or price. Or a picture of anybody actually holding one.

Seems like a waste of perfectly good nitrous.

I don't know. Sometimes when I use a restroom that has no door, and automatic urinals, I feel a little silly washing my hands after, like it's ME that's dirty.

@Bucky Rodgers (4:19 . . . close enough): I gotta know...are you old enough to know what a lid is or young enough that I didn't know they are calling it that again?
