dcdeb Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Gee Zak... I'm not sure about the legality of this. What you're proposing to do is broadcast copyrighted material that you don't own. I really don't think that's legal, and I'm not so sure we can really allow you to promote that here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should they be? We represent Mika -- Team Mika has told us that we (MFC) should consider ourselves an extension of them. So should we condone this sort of thing, which is clearly a violation of the copyright of the Parc des Princes DVD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the back of the DVD case it says, "copyright 2008 Casablanca Music under exclusive license to Universal Island Records Ltd... blah blah... Unauthorized copying, reproduction, hiring, lending, public performance or broadcasting of this DVD prohibited." I think broadcasting it on uStream falls under this.

That makes sense. How about you having a discussion with this Zak. He did say in his post that if there were any problems let him know. I think it would be prudent for you & him to discuss some your conncerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodes100 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I am sorry I don't have the information at my fingertips - but what type of online airing of these materials has Mika mentioned that he approved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbm Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I am sorry I don't have the information at my fingertips - but what type of online airing of these materials has Mika mentioned that he approved? It's not like she has a list of approvals sitting right next to her. All the legalities involved in something like this are very complicated. Even if Universal were to agree to something like this, that doesn't necessarily mean they would get the "green light." For example, a little while ago my mom wanted to use "Kick-Ass" in a video with the cast of the movie — Universal said yes, but Lionsgate said no. There are many different facets to things like this. And considering Mika/Team Mika's busy schedule at the moment, I would think it wise not to add this to their plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universal is preventing his own videos from playing on his official YouTube channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer this please - can you copy or steal muisc from Ustream? The only other point that i was trying to make was that the mods or mods be prudent & be certain about the illegal nature before deleting the thread. Dcdeb did that. Thank you. If this is legal then I am looking forward to it.:thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mika & some other artists have talked about a certain internet "thingy" that you cannot copy from. That is where they want to see their music online. That is where I am going with htis. Damnit! I wish I could remember what it is called. Fmbm you are an arse. :roftl: Sorry but you are so frustrating me. Somebody must have a better clue of what I am talking about - please? Otherwise I am going to want to kick Fmbm's ........ I apologize Fmbm. But - you are taking everything I am saying & twisting it to something other than what I am trying to express - whether I am being clear or not.

Kodes100 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I can't find it. But last year when Lily Allen came out against illegal sharing of music Mika talked about a site that you could hear the music but your couldn't copy it. That is what I was asking if Ustream was. Believe me I wish I had never asked. :roftl::roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droopsy Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Are you talking about spotify? Anyhow, with audio recorders etc you can pretty much rip everything online these days. But idd, no reason to get worked up over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, with audio recorders etc you can pretty much rip everything online these days. But idd, no reason to get worked up over I think he does mean Spotify -- I'm not sure how that works, though, because we don't have it here in the US yet. And yeah, I think that a lot of people are more tech savvy than I am, and know how to record off of ustream, which I think saves a copy of whatever you stream, doesn't it? I think it does. In any case, I'm closing this thread, because as I said earlier, we can't really be seen as condoning a broadcast of the PdP DVD in violation of its copyright. I think you'd probably rather have us shut you down, than Universal. And I will also say to Zak -- I know you're an enthusiastic fan, and I don't really want to dampen that enthusiasm, but you really need to think things through a little better. This isn't the first time when you've done or tried to do something that was either a copyright infringement or questionable. You can't just take others' work, whether it's their music or their internet posts or their logo, and do whatever you want with them -- at least not ethically or legally. I know you're a HUGE Mika fan -- we all are or we wouldn't be here -- and I know you want to have your own Mika fan site and all. I get that. But you also need to have some respect for others -- not just for Mika but for all the Mika fans here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
