If you are looking for quality, original, hassle free, inexpensive, legal soundtrack music for your next Youtube video or short film.... give "Rumblefish Friendly Music" a try. Just follow the link in the "About Me" section on my page. Only $1.99 per track. (Some good songs...not just library music)
@iRHAPEzombiies true.. You decide rather you wanna support the makers or just download their stuff..
I myself love 70-80's music.. I can by now tell you that they made there money back then! Should i still buy their albums? I can't find a reason why i should..
I download pirated/cracked/ripped files but I also buy things I really like. For example I like to download a game to try it before I buy it for myself.And piracy is ilegal only if you burn CD's/DVD's and then sell them .But if you download and keep for yourself it's ok.
Blurring the line between piracy and plagiarism. It's even ridiculous to even think that Youtube contributes to piracy, given all of the ways that information is actually shared.
Even worse, the argument for 'stealing', implying that something is lost when content is copied, or that money is owed to people that list a price next to their stuff.
I dont think its the leading cause, but I do think it plays a factor, there are quite a few videos on how to obtain movies and games illegally, and I even asked one time where I can get Arma 2 and some guy responded Pirate Bay, I of course didnt. lol
Same NC police officer was RECORDED discussing a favor being asked The officer said a dentist had died while having sex in his office with a woman not his wife The brother who is an attorney in Raleigh phoned the PD asking to keep it quiet for the sake of the family. The officer said he started to tell him when you do something like this it is going to get around Later the news paper printed the dentist's wife was at the officer waiting to go for a walk definitely not story officer told
The FBI Anti Piracy Warning says they investigate piracy. The RIAA the FBI and others call piracy a crime of stealing. Joel Tennenbaum, Jammie Thomas and hundreds of others were sued for downloading music illegally. Considering this should this officer's RECORDED conversation be ignored. Is this fair
While thousands were being sued having to pay outrageous monetary amounts downloading music the RIAA & FBI & PD ignored the following A NC high police officer RECORDED discussing downloading music He named the name Kazaa and talked how songs were arranged in groups you choose & click & get them He said it was the thing to do everybody was doing it He bet his daughters had downloaded a thousand songs on his computer He laughed & said he hoped the federal government did not investigate him
Well Chris, not saying that I do this, but techincally anyone could steal music off youtube without using a flash download add on for browsers. If someone wanted to take music without being caught via IP, they could easily fullscreen the video and record the video with fraps. Then they could simply take the audio from the video they recorded,put it into a video editor, and save it only as an audio file. Just saying it would be that simple. People please don't take my idea into consideration.
For years the record companies overcharged for cd's and other media. When CD-r devices came out they shrugged them off, the same happened with the mp3 explosion and now they're paying the price.
The Piracy Scare,slows the internet down, so many people are watching, to see what a internet doer is doing on line, is He or She into the download of something or not!. This is why the Goggle idea of a computer is so cool, no Hard Drive.I do not like a slow internet, I am a fast reader or speed freak online so much to see or read,why download and store stuff, so much is wrong about it, that is goggle job to store infro not the user,the user is the reader not the hoarder of infro. Thanks

The thing is, copyright laws have become so out of date nobody knows what the hell is going on anymore. There needs to be a reformat of copyright law that can extend to the internet as well as for offline stuff. People keep whining about WMG, UMG and Sony muting/deleting music off YouTube but they have every right to. It's THEIR property. It's like someone uploading your private sex tape, you'd want it taken off the net too.
If Microsoft Office was $50, let's just say the stores would need more receipt paper.
Honestly, it really should be done with a lot of software because if they weren't hundreds of dollars, the amount of purchases would skyrocket. Everyone would have Office 2010 and Windows 7.
In hardware, they cannot really go under a certain price that would match their expenses. There is no expense in software except the company's one-time costs such as licensing
For gods sake Chris, piracy is not stealing! This has been discussed countless times and it almost always boils down to stealing implies the original owner has lost something it previously had.
More to the point of this video we _need_ an easy way to "pirate" things, what if people could silence news to the point where the news stations attempts to remove every trace of it's news reports on the story? Then how will you prove they initially did air the story and acknowledged it did happen?
Even i prefer to buy a all the Media and Software Legally if and only if i had the Money even i don't like to use pirated stuff but what to do ? but seriously if i get rich one day i guarantee i will not even go to that *sites (Torrent) any more ! i am sorry developers forgive me ! :( my income is 400 $ per month
As far as i'm concerned, there are times when i see it as more acceptable. The main thing i have no problem pirating is things from Adobe. They charge way too much for anyone who isn't professional to get hold of. For instance, if they were to sell the software for much much cheaper, then they might end up with more sales. I'd pay for CS5 if I could, but i'm a penniless student.
in one hand the producer looses money because ppl are not buying it. On the other hand it acts as good marketing if content is good. That way many more will be interested in the content and possibly buy it or parts of it.
I have a question for a future vid. Do you think Hard Drives will become obsolete in the near future? If so will solid state drives come down in price and become more commonly used in computers?
YouTube cracks down on stuff like that. Big companies are always DMCAing vids here lol. Even to stuff they don't own. One time i saw disney removed a captain planet episode. Rather you see that as a good thing or a bad thing that's debatable... But they don't own it. Ted Turner owned that show. lol
i don't condone piracy at all. i rent/buy my stuff through the proper channels. but 99% of the stuff that is pirated is popular tv shows, movies, and music. downloading them doesn't hurt the artists or actors. who it hurts are the huge mega corporations who sell it and advertise it. and they are happy to exploit the consumers and overcharge for stuff. so i cant say i feel any sympathy for them. just sayin
1º-The "pirate" buyed a product, and posted in a download site that you need to pay for download it(you pay the same as the product but you can download all contents on it).
2º- An hacker hacked an account and donwload it for free.
3º- the hacker sets up an site where ads pay to the hacker.
4º- the hacker posts the content for free download, but the ads on hes hacker site pay him for example every 100 downloads.
@mankyman6 When you lend a cd, only two or three copies of the cd are probably going to be made (the two or three people you lend it too). If you distribute a song on a file sharing website, it may reach thousands of people.
@mankyman6 when you "buy" a CD, you are buying 1 license for that CD, so (saying you haven't copied the CD, or ripped it to your ipod and computer) when you "lend" it to your friend, you no longer have access to that CD, THAT is legal, however if you go and distribute the CD by making copies of your original, that is illegal.
I will happily buy software if it's cheap enough. I bought Windows 7 for £35 on a student program. That's a fair price. I cannot understand why companies like adobe charge thousands for their software, hardly any teenager or college student can afford that, only big companies can
piracy is relitive to WHO you are stealing from, mostly you find that artists who release there own product suffer less from piracy than sony etc. purely based on the fact that theres a media machine that does things like has a mark up on the cost of blank CD;s to help cover the cost of piracy. and the term taking money out of the hands of... do you really think Office would be popular if it couldnt be pirated. People cant afford it. So its relative, not right, but still relative
All I can say ... How can I get the software that I need if it isnt even availible in my country ... How can I buy a 2000$ program if my monthyl pay is 800$ ... It isnt all black and white in this world.
@zizikelizike Then don't use it. It's like saying you have to steal a Ferrari because the Toyota you can afford is not to your liking. There are alternatives to many expensive programs. albeit not as polished but it has the basic features.
@ForNoReason1000 ive googled some of those..your prices are a bit off ..those are developer 3D gaming programs mostly..i can understand why they cost that much if your a game developer then your planning on making money off what your creating with those
@stompySharpNpointy Unity 3d is off depending on your license, pro by itself is 1500, with all the other licensees its 5k, probably the same with some of thew others, i didnt know you were talking about specific programs,
helll youtube ? noo people in the 60s were recording songs from the radio and were selling these ... same thing with movies on vhs ... so youtube has nothing to to with piracy ...
@ZeroC0ol1989 but do you know over how many years adobe have developed there products and how many thousand if not millions of lines whit code and hours of work they have putted in to it ?
and btw the people that have developed this software aint doing it for free...
@s5SnipEmo yes gimp and such programs are free but thos programs have not getted developed in that many years and programs like gimp is most of the time based on open surce projects...
It's a bit like releasing a song every year but every year add a little bit of improvements and then sell it for the same price as the last version or even more expensive!
@Trowter Well basically if you haven't seen already he has over 3000 youtube videos....he uploads about 5-10 vids everyday about B.S, he spends most of his time sitting his ass down on the computer researching B.S, he should be going outside and doing other stuff.
@Trowter 1. I'm not trolling 2. its 10:30 P.M I would go outside and do other stuff but it's dark so i will go tomorrow. 3. ok soo your saying i'm the lowlife for trolling the internet (which i'm not, i'm just trying to have a discussion, that's not trolling)....ummmmm ok at least I don't upload 5-10 videos everyday talking about B.S.
I will always pirate video games until publishers start following "The Gamers' Bill Of Rights". Punkbuster is practically a legal virus and SecuRom is annoying as shit. You can read them here: gamersbillofrights org
I don't see the problem with putting other peoples videos on youtube, provided you haven't changed it in some way. Movies and TV shows ok you are potentially costing someone money, thats different. But music videos is different, since when is watching a video thats already free pirating? Its not like someone else uploading a music video has cost the artist money, if anything its helped spread the word of that artist.
yeah there is a lot of people making youtube channels for doing fan videos and I know for a fact they are illegally downloading the shows and movies that they keep doing fan videos 2. some of them even get their channel deleted and they get upset and say youtube is stupid I tried telling some of them that youtube is doing its job but they will keep doing it no matter what so they create another channel. I think it is stupid and they should get deleted like xwprisonlovemx needs to be deleted.
Chris, this isn't a total piracy, because Youtube web platform is based on open-source, even most of Google servers are running OPEN-SOURCE SERVERS (Linux), and Google itself is even open-source company. On youtube you can find a lot of good documentaries (yeah even without TV advertisement). And fighting versus real piracy is like fighting versus unbreakable walls. Piracy will always exists since shareware principles are presenting on this planet. Get something what is made of GPL/open-source
Ha Ha Napster, the days when students would use the time they had allocated by their parents online downloading ONE song through a 56k modem (Mostly 33.6 or 28k) such sweet memories.
If you were not going to buy it in the first place ever and just had a mild interest and used it like a demo is that still piracy no one looses any money and sometimes those things I treat as demos turns into a purchase. Its not hard to find videos that tell you how or where to go to pirate and this yes youtube does cause piracy in that type of usage some condone
Pause the vid at 0:22 classic... Chris you say you said no to napster free music, come on, I bet you were the one downloading it :) It's nice to sit here and type on my copied Windows listening to copied music and downloading copied films...Life's great :)
Almost everything I have pirated, I have payed for in the past. For example, Sim City 3000, I bought multiple copies of that in the past, and recently pirated it. So, is that really stealing? Maybe technically, but not really.
Asking if YouTube is causing piracy is like asking if the Glock 37 pistol is causing gun crimes. While it IS a factor in the problem, it's not the only source of trouble. Discontinue the Glock 37, people will just use a different gun. Same here: if YouTube shuts down, people will simply get their illicit content on another site. Piracy is an issue with ANY media and must be taken into account for any media producer.
people need cheap video rentals. They are too pricey at the moment. Also, there should be a way to legally torrent movies, cause its so much faster, and I think the pirate community likes the torrent process
You are definitively correct in saying that YouTube is not the cause of piracy. Whenever users can submit their own content - piracy will exist. Would you blame a file hosting website for "causing" piracy? How about Google?
As you've mentioned in the video, they make it very easy to pirate - but this is the same for pretty much every option of uploading user content to the web.
Anybody out in this technical group have any iseas why my YT videos don't 'play' anymore?
The audio is just fine, but the video parts just'jump' from one still shot to another. the video portion has no smooth continuity any more.
For the last few days, YT is not like watching TV, it's like watching snapshots in a photo album, with an audio background. Actually, typing words has also slowed down too.
Interesting....... LOL!!! @ 0:29 "share it with the world and not cost you anything" In Other Countries with Internet Data Caps you have to pay for the Data to be Uploaded to Youtube ROFL!!!
if some people cant afford the content to begin with (which is the root of most piracy) then you can not really count them in for actually buying the software if there was no pirated version because they would have no money to pay for it anyways. so robbing millions is a bit out of hand. maybe thousands (depending on the product... ex, any expansive rendering product made by big name company's) anyways nice video Chris.
Interesting video and I agree with you completely. I'd love to hear your opinions on the YouTube partner program (being one yourself) and YouTube as a source of income. I've heard a lot of people say that YouTube is too cluttered with vloggers and partners which makes it too hard for unknown people or less important videos to rise to the top. Do you think YouTube and it's users have "sold out?" More specifically: do you think YouTube has become monopolized by the Partner Program?
Chris, music Piracy has existed since before the internet was common. Many, many people have recorded purchased media onto a blank cassette tape. I would be hugely surprised if you haven't done that yourself at one point in your life. Once you made a copy of that purchased media onto a blank cassette tape you were effectively pirating the media. Sure, the internet has made the whole process easier and stupidly faster, but piracy has always been there. (not saying it's right)
@HAMWI253-Idisagree, piracy is only stealing/selfish, plagarism is deceptive AND selfish/stealing.(plagarism is deceptive because it is the act of claiming that a property was created by your own.)
----
basically the situation with piracy is that people are unlawfully viewing content that they had not previously gained the right-to-view. My point is that we have to ask our selves what it means to steal property. Does it mean to leave the victim with less capital than before? or damn char limit..
YouTube itself is not causing piracy, but what really is causing it is the YouTube downloaders which actually let you download YouTube videos before they get removed.
It's not stealing no matter what. If I couldn't pirate I would just not consume the content. If you go to the super market and copy a bag of chips you have not stolen the bag of chips. there is no cost to the record company and there's no opportunity cost either because I would just not use their products if I had to buy. The products I would buy if I had no choice i ACTUALLY BUY!

Downloading music for free is fine. It's like someone giving you their CD to check out some songs that you might like.
Now, as long as the song uploader bought the music themselves then it's fine. If they didn't, then it's stealing.

@mankyman6 When you lend a cd, only two or three copies of the cd are probably going to be made (the two or three people you lend it too). If you distribute a song on a file sharing website, it may reach thousands of people.
RyanLipinski1 8 months ago
@mankyman6 when you "buy" a CD, you are buying 1 license for that CD, so (saying you haven't copied the CD, or ripped it to your ipod and computer) when you "lend" it to your friend, you no longer have access to that CD, THAT is legal, however if you go and distribute the CD by making copies of your original, that is illegal.

I will happily buy software if it's cheap enough. I bought Windows 7 for £35 on a student program. That's a fair price. I cannot understand why companies like adobe charge thousands for their software, hardly any teenager or college student can afford that, only big companies can

piracy is relitive to WHO you are stealing from, mostly you find that artists who release there own product suffer less from piracy than sony etc. purely based on the fact that theres a media machine that does things like has a mark up on the cost of blank CD;s to help cover the cost of piracy. and the term taking money out of the hands of... do you really think Office would be popular if it couldnt be pirated. People cant afford it. So its relative, not right, but still relative

Lowering the costs of products means more people will buy it and thats really what content producers are out for right?
I support piracy until the time that software like Sony Vegas and Adobe CS 5 are stopping to overprice their products!

I think the sales will go up by 80% if they lowered the price to let's say 10$

Now I know there must be allot of work into the affords of making something.
I just think all software and other content needs to go down in price.
So that anyone can afford it, little bit like in the App Store.
I always wait until an app becomes $0,99

I don't see the problem with putting other peoples videos on youtube, provided you haven't changed it in some way. Movies and TV shows ok you are potentially costing someone money, thats different. But music videos is different, since when is watching a video thats already free pirating? Its not like someone else uploading a music video has cost the artist money, if anything its helped spread the word of that artist.

Chris, this isn't a total piracy, because Youtube web platform is based on open-source, even most of Google servers are running OPEN-SOURCE SERVERS (Linux), and Google itself is even open-source company. On youtube you can find a lot of good documentaries (yeah even without TV advertisement). And fighting versus real piracy is like fighting versus unbreakable walls. Piracy will always exists since shareware principles are presenting on this planet. Get something what is made of GPL/open-source

Asking if YouTube is causing piracy is like asking if the Glock 37 pistol is causing gun crimes. While it IS a factor in the problem, it's not the only source of trouble. Discontinue the Glock 37, people will just use a different gun. Same here: if YouTube shuts down, people will simply get their illicit content on another site. Piracy is an issue with ANY media and must be taken into account for any media producer.

You are definitively correct in saying that YouTube is not the cause of piracy. Whenever users can submit their own content - piracy will exist. Would you blame a file hosting website for "causing" piracy? How about Google?
As you've mentioned in the video, they make it very easy to pirate - but this is the same for pretty much every option of uploading user content to the web.

The audio is just fine, but the video parts just'jump' from one still shot to another. the video portion has no smooth continuity any more.
For the last few days, YT is not like watching TV, it's like watching snapshots in a photo album, with an audio background. Actually, typing words has also slowed down too.

if some people cant afford the content to begin with (which is the root of most piracy) then you can not really count them in for actually buying the software if there was no pirated version because they would have no money to pay for it anyways. so robbing millions is a bit out of hand. maybe thousands (depending on the product... ex, any expansive rendering product made by big name company's) anyways nice video Chris.

Interesting video and I agree with you completely. I'd love to hear your opinions on the YouTube partner program (being one yourself) and YouTube as a source of income. I've heard a lot of people say that YouTube is too cluttered with vloggers and partners which makes it too hard for unknown people or less important videos to rise to the top. Do you think YouTube and it's users have "sold out?" More specifically: do you think YouTube has become monopolized by the Partner Program?

Chris, music Piracy has existed since before the internet was common. Many, many people have recorded purchased media onto a blank cassette tape. I would be hugely surprised if you haven't done that yourself at one point in your life. Once you made a copy of that purchased media onto a blank cassette tape you were effectively pirating the media. Sure, the internet has made the whole process easier and stupidly faster, but piracy has always been there. (not saying it's right)

@HAMWI253-Idisagree, piracy is only stealing/selfish, plagarism is deceptive AND selfish/stealing.(plagarism is deceptive because it is the act of claiming that a property was created by your own.)
----
basically the situation with piracy is that people are unlawfully viewing content that they had not previously gained the right-to-view. My point is that we have to ask our selves what it means to steal property. Does it mean to leave the victim with less capital than before? or damn char limit..

It's not stealing no matter what. If I couldn't pirate I would just not consume the content. If you go to the super market and copy a bag of chips you have not stolen the bag of chips. there is no cost to the record company and there's no opportunity cost either because I would just not use their products if I had to buy. The products I would buy if I had no choice i ACTUALLY BUY!
