grrrr... the man....

so here is what i don't understand

copyright infringement.

i mean, how is it okay to quote published literary works and not have to pay any sort of royalty or worry about getting your pants sued off, but even THINK about using music/video and you're in big trouble??

i'm really annoyed. because i made this video tonight that i thought was pretty sweet and it's got a bunch of outdoor ed pictures/video and background music to liven it up... well apparently that is not ok. after trying to upload it on facebook, i got a mean message from them telling me if i try to pull that stunt again i could get my account deleted. ouch.

i'm all about respecting an artist's rights to their music/media/etc., but i think things have gotten a little overkill and we just love to sue each other.

lame.
