This just seems utterly ridiculous.
Universal Music forced a woman to take down a 29 second video on youtube of her toddler dancing on a coffee table to a Prince song because 29 seconds of the song was deemed "copyright infringement". Come on, REALLY?!?! What inb the hell is the world coming to???
Here's the nuts and bolts of the article, but if you want the whole thing, go here...
"A 29-second video clip of a toddler dancing to Prince's "Let's Go Crazy" is the subject of a new court complaint against Universal Music Publishing Group, which demanded that the clip be removed from YouTube in early June. Apparently, the company believes that a few seconds of music blasting from a background stereo infringes on its copyright, but the Electronic Frontier Foundation disagrees. The EFF filed suit against Universal yesterday, alleging that the music in the clip was "self-evident non-infringing fair use." |
