    There is a very big difference in VCR's and tubes.. VCR's recorded shows on TV or copied movies for use in your own home. People didn't share their recorded VCR tapes with millions of people around the world and if they tried they got busted for it.

    Tubes are not a storage device for private use..

    and you don't happen to be maddogg now do you? The guy that was making people sign up to porn sites to get access to illegal downloads on his warez sites? Then telling them how to cancel? Wouldn't be you now would it?

      really?

      you haven't learned not to engage that total genius who knows everything about porn marketing but that has never marketed porn?

        This case was about unfair business practice, not the specific content. So the tube site has not "won" the "right" to use stolen content...
        Giving a free content to intentionally harm competitors might actually have the opposite effect. Who wants to marketing a producer or sponsors who endorse or give away all free elsewhere anyway? Redtube + sponsors might be big, but if you sum up all, they do not run the show. What we need, is a list of which producers, sponsors, trades etc. to avoid - and which not to avoid; lets start with teenrevenue which deserves the marketing

          but they have gotten the legal precedent that establishes creating a system that allows USERS to upload videos that give away your content for free is not an "unfair business practice"

          i will give you an example
          it means that now if you fully fulfil your customer fair use rights to use torrents as a backup by setting up a private tracker. you would now have to prove that this precedent doesn't apply when attempting to sue for the damages

          you just tripled (if not more) the cost of using this legal procedure.

            you do realize that on july 6th the supreme court upheld the timeshifting in a cloud case.
            the network effect doesn't invalidate backup rights when you "share" a SMS image for the os and software.

            if it did microsoft could sue every competing sms server for copyright infringement for their os/office images.

            nope
            and you made that bogus accusation before (if i remember correctly) when i defended choker for not hiring people to verify content two levels deep like you wanted him too.

              lol.. no you do not know the case, or just make your own conclusions. Copyright issues are already established, but this was a case about the business method and TR sued them for their method - not stolen content. Just like the torrent tracker is not illegal itself, does not automatically mean some specific content is legal to distribute...

                I said when this suit was first filed, and I still think I'm right, that it wasn't about winning, because any lawyer worth his hourly rate KNEW that this didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

                This was just a fuck you to redtube. Redtube was/is for sale, but they can't sell if they have a lawsuit pending. "IF" they could have gotten past the motions to dismiss, they could have dragged this thing out for another 6 months or more, delaying the sale even longer and causing redtube to continue piling up the red ink.

                This was about a guy with a deep pocket wanting to stick his thumb in someone's eye, that's all.

                  you can't be that stupid this must be a deliberate bogus claim

                  don't you understand that is the exact point

                  before they went forward with this dog of a case there was no precedent explictly stating that giving away your competitors content for free was NOT unfair business practise

                  now there is

                  so if you were to fight based on the private tracker, fully providing fair use right that i gave you know have to prove that this ruling was only true in the case where safe harbor/fair use applied.

                  That cost money, tripling the cost of a trial. there are cases that backup that arguement, but until a judge explictly takes those cases into account and makes a ruling that is only a legal opinion and teen revenue gave them one more precedent to hide behind.

                  I don't understand why you don't see how patently stupid/bad that is.

                    Please...
                    First, this was not about infringements, DMCA, "fair use" or whatever you are confused about... not the content, but the business METHOD.
                    Second, if you want to talk about general precedent, you need to refer to a case in court. Dismissed motions is not a "case" you can refer to.

                      so your trying to say that everyone else can keep filing the same bogus claim over and over again with no consequence

                      That the fact that the judge dismissed the case AND applied anti-slapp provisions doesn't set a precedent.

                      you are totally clueless about the law.

                        No, you do not understand what precedent in this context is, because the claims are related to process - not mandatory ruling as you say. Full precedent is about the principles under some local jurisdiction, or under some hiearchy of jurisdiction, referering to a case that actually have been ruled. A judge can't dismiss a case refering to a precendent which have never been set, nor can he deny peoples right to file. If someone file again, they might be dismissed if it is exactly same situation under same jurisdiction, and consequense could be paying the costs, but each claim would probably have other arguments. They know that now, but what lawyers advise you to do, is not the same as precedent as a ruled mandatory principle. In other words, I think you misunderstand everything, because a weak plaintiff is not the same as other stronger arguments can't be used.

                          Besides that porn sites don't sell you the license to the content like a software company does.. They sell you "ACCESS" to the content. When you stop paying for that access you lose the right to it. Just like if you stop paying the lease on a car, you can't keep it.





                          nope

                              and what do you think the 99.5% of the US population who have a tv and there for have been granted access to "lost"(one of the series sued for) are.

                              each person in that majority group are doing nothing but using the swarm(cloud) as a vcr.
                              Each person has the same right to timeshift as a person who recorded it with a vcr.
                              The network effect doesn't take away that right.

                                i suggest you reread the betamax case
                                universal made that exact arguement
                                they argueed that they licienced it for access "on a specific day at a specific time"
                                the courts ruled that the viewer granted such a licience had a right to move that viewing time to another day and another time and right of timeshifting was born.

                                So your trying to claim that you should have a right to use the exact same arguement that has already been ruled to be invalid because your a porn site.

                                  except now that the dismissal is on record the defendent can point to it and claim that a new case is the same old thing and should be dismissed as quickly.

                                  before you can ever get any of your "other arguments" heard you would have to disprove this claim.
                                  Fail to do so and the case goes away. It is one more road block in the away of getting a ruling in your favor.

                                  brazzers could point to the ruling and say see that is the exact same arguement (Which it is BTW) and it would fold like house of cards.

                                    each person in that majority group are doing nothing but using the swarm(cloud) as a vcr.
                                    Each person has the same right to timeshift as a person who recorded it with a vcr.
                                    The network effect doesn't take away that right.

                                    OK let me explain it to you.

                                    If you record a show off TV, you are paying for cable or satellite, so you have the right to record a show or movie and watch it later. You are "paying" for access to the TV programing. If you stop paying they turn it off, yet you can still watch the videos you may have recorded.

                                    You however "can't" share them on a mass scale. Even DVD's and VCR tapes have warnings at the start that tell you it's violation of Federal law. That means if you buy a DVD at a store you do not have the right to show it to others for commercial gain.

                                    Illegal tube uses have not paid for the right to view those videos and the owners of the site do not have the legal right to share them with others.

                                      and again your talking about going after the vcr sellers for what could be an illegal action by vcr users.

                                      That the point, you could make bootleg copies of movies with daisy chains of vcrs.
                                      That doesn't make VCR illegal,
                                      that doesn't make walmart guilty of contributory infringement


                                      the swarm is a collection of people some who have a right to download the content (timeshifting, backup etc) and some that don't.

                                      Only those that don't are committing a crime, and should be punished.
                                      the tube sites and torrent sites are acting like walmart providing a technology implementation that can be abused and not abused.

                                        Why are you guys debating VCRs? It's pretty silly.

                                        There is a big difference between recording a program you watch in your house and rebroadcasting it to millions each day.

                                            when you start bringing in additional parties that you cant prove knowingly took part in any copyright infringement all you do is drag out the case. This is a case that could take years and years to conclude.

                                              there is no way you can make that bullshit arguement any more.

                                                          there is a significant difference between releasing non working pieces into a swarm and putting an entire working copy on a website you moron

                                                          that why i said timeshifting in a cloud not timeshifting on a website you own and control.

                                                            that why i said timeshifting in a cloud not timeshifting on a website you own and control.
                                                            sorry should be providing timeshifting on a website you own and control.

                                                            That would go against the grokster ruling.

                                                            If you still haven't gotten it timeshifting is a downloading protection, not an uploading protection.
