Is usuing stolen audio clips from movies in banners on GFY any different than torrents?
I bet if you owned the content it wouldnt be, would it?

Exactly. It's deeply serious copyright violation. A deeply seriously annoying one.Comment

because you arent out there starting a war against it like you are torrents.
You must support it then. Either you are against stolen content or you are not.
Personally, i dont care about torrents or what audio you steal, i just get tired of seeing people start witch campaigns about "stolen content" when there are top banner spots using stolen content to get your attention.
laughable at best

Who care about music industry?They suck one way or another.Comment

There is no porn company here who gets written ok to use stolen audio from MOTION PICTURES.
I need not explain myself here. Stolen content has been used in banners on GFY for years now...
Once they used Schultz Snoopy charachter and many times it has been songs/audio and many times quotes from movies. You cannot do this and then try and pass yourself off as "against piracy."
Using someones property is illegal, whether it is a cartoon charachter or a sample from a movie.

Nothing to do with music. When you steal audio from a MOVIE and use it in your banner, it is illegal.
You can dodge it all you want, and ass kissers can start fights all they want - fact remains - stiolen content is being used on this forum in banners to GET YOUR EYES AND make money off the ads.
meanwhile, 4 people started anti-torrent sites.
Fact is, people are only against torrents because its the new "content crusade" - if torrents were only about stealing music, you webmasters wouldnt even know what the word "torrent" meant. But as soon as someone downloads a blowjob vid, the witch hunt begins.
again, laughable at best.

The rest of the world regarding the torrent issue:
'Who cares about porn industry? They suck one way or another (no pun intended). And what they do is immoral, so stealing from them is actually a good thing, it makes the world better'.
Any kind of intellectual property theft sucks, but you just won't realize it until you're affected yourself...

and again, i dont care what you steal. Go steal what you want. Make money off it, hell google video makes money off showing others vids. You can too!
But I just had to speak on this when I see the torrent crusade in full swing, and meanwhile stolen content is reaching for my attention through VERY EXPENSIVE audio banners.
I guess im the only one who sees things for what they are anymore...
anyway... got plenty of work to do and not here looking for fights, just setting things straight.
go on your crusade if you must, just make sure you look around at what is around you before you get all high and mighty.
ive had content, designs, sites, you name it stolen from me. you just gotta move on to the next project.

Isn't there some guideline that you have to use "X" amount of time before it's infringing? Just curious, but I think I heard that in a DVD commentary regarding a small clip of sound they used. Guy said it was so short because otherwise they would have had to pay for it.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

Look I was bringing this up years ago, before someone used Snoopy cartoons in banners, and way back when others were using stolen audio...
the fact is, it is still going on. Why was it not stopped?
Did the people who run this forum stop caring about "stolen content?"
Ummm, i dont consider myself the smartest man in the word, but its not too hard to recognize stol;en audio in banners.
And the banners have been inrotation with stolen content for years now, no one cared or cares.
Do you understand? I run a forum for webmasters, Ive been asked to do audio banners, and I refused. I refuse to put up advertising banners with stolen content in them.
Do you see me starting threads about being anti-piracy?
The righteous are usually part of the problem.

I see your point, but not that it's "laughable" This is a PORN webmasters forum. About the PORN business. And the "witchunt" is about taking ENTIRE movies from members areas and stealing them and distributing them for profit without consent.
If this were a Record Industry or mainstream Movie Industry forum then I would suspect that they would be concerned about that.
But since this is a forum for adult webmasters....it makes sense to me that we are addressing our own issues.
The audio being used without permission? You're right. Not legal.
If someone used the entire "Escape From New York" movie as a download to profit using a banner (somehow) then yes, I believe eyebrows would be raised right here on GFY and we who are against content theft would talk about that too.
But when I and many others are having our content stolen, I don't think it's "laughable" that we didn't take umbrage to a banner saying "The Duke Of New York!"
It's wrong to use the audio. But in my list of priorities...on a forum designed to address the adult internet...you have to forgive people for focusing on the bigger problem that affects the adult industry-Robbie

Somehow I think if you owned the content your opinion would be different.
Which proves my point, the only reason you guys care about "piracy" is when it comes to ripping YOUR content. So the "anti-piracy" cause is a front.
It has nothing to do with piracy. You are either against it or not.
So by downplaying the value of someone elses content, you think this validates your argument?
If I owned rights to a movie, I wouldnt want any of you people using 10 seconds of my property without paying me. Why do you people see their content as not worthy of protection, but your creampie vid is so precious?

not really, where did I say "war"?
but seriously, I agree it's not in the webmaster interest to care about that
I mean, this is a great board but it is run as it is, and there are constantly many things to bitch about, from annoying trolls who don't get banned for two weeks to GFY being often so slow that a thread takes 2 minutes to load
would you also expect webmasters here to start threads with 300 replies asking Lensman to remove a banner from "yet another sponsor" who uses some music in their banner?
not sure how to say it without putting GFY in a bad light, but there are indeed other forums where the owners have a more pro-active approach to certain industry problems than the owners of GFY who - as it seems - run this board more or less on auto-pilot
hell, even Smokey made a thread about Realitycash/playboy content used on torrents to pomote AFF and no one really caredI don't use ICQ anymore.Comment

Could fall under fair use...
It doesn't harm the value of the original product at all, would be a hard copyright case to win IMO.Comment

If the song is older than 25 years than in most cases the copywrite has expired. There are a few exceptions like Elvis and The Beatles (and a few others) only because the RIAA re-applied for 99 year copywrites on their music so that they can squeeze more money out of people.Comment

you know all the people bitching about torrent sites have computers full of "stolen" music and movies. Dont forget the cracked software they use to build their sites.Comment
