You see, sometimes in basic business you make a deal with a company to offer your goods or services to them on some sort of exclusive level so that you both benefit from it. Look at it like this. Taylor Swift recently put out a new album. She offered a deluxe edition of the album that had 3 extra songs on it, but it was only for sale at Target. Quick, call in the dogs! That is anti-trust! Taylor Swift is using her extra three songs to leverage the market and force you to buy it from Target! That is a monopoly and it must be stopped! It must be liberated! put it up on a torrent site and let everyone have it for free, that is the only way it will be fair!
Please.

i love how your trying to defend shit that got standard oil broken up and try and call it just business because the monopoly is copyright monopoly
standard oil had similar exclusive deals, their gas station partners got gas first, and in full supply while their competitors got short supplied
the only reason this shit is allowed in the industry is that anti-trust laws have not been applied to the abuse.

There is no censoring of free speech here. It is a business deal, nothing more. Free Speech isn't always 100% absolute. If I go online and say a bunch of shit about you, you can sue me for it. Bieber could still post his video on YouTube, he would just have to face the wrath of his record label and he is not willing to do that.

did you not read the article it the auto filtering of youtube that pulled the shit down. This publicity is him taking on the record company.

You are getting desperate. You used to try to spin fancy words (half of which you would spell wrong) and then divert your arguments into other areas in an effort to detract from the original point. That was at least mildly amusing. Now you are just screaming free speech and you have no idea what you are talking about.

actually your the one who dragged the conversation to free speech and commentary. I started and am now back to the anti trust issue.
your trying to defend an action that got standard oil broken up period.
