In Response To: Re: Machinama/Highlight Creators Beware! ([HC]D-Man) : Regarding this - I think it'd be a good idea for Wu to drop any music vids : that are up on HBO - to save the site from any CHANCE that the RIAA may : come knocking,,, Um... who's going to sort through the vids and decide what's allowed and what's not? If a video contains a music track overlaid on gameplay, does that negate the argument that the audio track can be extracted and used instead of buying the original? If so, how MUCH extra sound has to exist to keep the RIAA happy? We host nearly a thousand videos at this point - I'd guess that 90% of them (or more) use music that isn't licensed from its creators. Pulling down the content proactively would pretty much decimate our offerings.
