the only reason this shit is allowed in the industry is that anti-trust laws have not been applied to the abuse.
Apples and oranges. You can still get your Taylor Swift record anywhere, you just can't get the deluxe edition unless you go to target. Same with the Bieber video. You can get it, you just have to watch it on Facebook. No anti-trust here, you are just grasping for straws and trying to find new ways to give away content.

Oh, and in case you didn't read the article you posted and are pissed off about, the Bieber video on up on Youtube. Clearly this was a case of their software triggering a block, they cleared up who the copyrigtht owner was and then allowed the video to be posted.That sounds reasonable and fair to me. So clearly there is no anti-trust here because the video is on the site now.

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.
I did. It looks like he tried to upload it but it was blocked because they thought it was someone who doesn't have the right to upload it doing so. Once they verified who was uploading and and who owned the copyright, the video was put on the site.

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.
How many voices do you have in your head? You spew so much shit that you don't even remember what you said. If you look at post #7 you will see that in fact it is you who brought up commentary and free speech in the same freaking post. Here let me quote it for you: "you just proved my point, the monopolistic control of the record companies pretty much make it "impossible" to be a success without allowing them to censor your free speach rights." I had never mentioned free speech. At this point I had only said he was under contract with the record company. You brought up free speech.

You then said: ""check out my new video" is a valid form of commentary."
Again it is you who brought up commentary.

You need to get some medication or something to calm those voices in your head down so you can at least remember what it is you wrote.

BTW in all the research that you have done as you defend Bieber and his right to upload, did you happen to find that email you claimed you sent to The Doc but every time you are asked for proof you never show it?
