Why hasn't this video been rated higher? This is COMPLETELY relevant to recent issues here, this thing should have AT LEAST 11K views!

Thanks - I guess people prefer rants over art history lessons.

Very, very well done. If only we could rely on people to think not react.

[kenrg]

Thinking is too much trouble ;^)

@kenrg yeah it's weird that there are any thumbs down... what's there to disagree with here? Yes, perhaps you need to make your video flashier! Just kidding

[DigitalTrucker]

@pietrosammarco It's probably from Sony or BMI

Speakin of thinkin ... we spend a boatload (crapload, wideload - you can choose your metaphor) of time watch yours and others copyright videos in the past 48 hours. We hadn't realized that regular folks were having videos taken down for having soundtracks. We were even more surprised that something as complicated and corporate as "sync licenses" entered the conversation. I'm sure the tween dancing in their bedrooms will be all over those. They'll become the new hot thing!
