@thecrazyaviator not the case.

youtube takes down all the copyrighted videos

@thecrazyaviator Obviously 'cause of non-copyrighted material is posted on YouTube whereas napster stole money from entertainers.

@thecrazyaviator Napster was a new threat that was made an example of. Also, youtube doesn't have the potential to affect movie sales or netflix profits in the same way Napster affected record companies. While some people will watch an entire movie on youtube in a series of 10 minute clips, if somebody really likes the movie they will look for a better format. Movie torrents on the other have the potential to be a serious threat to the industry, for obvious reasons.

@darksith36 No, it's because he wanted to have a gold-plated shark tank bar installed, but had to wait a few months

@thecrazyaviator First movers usually get screwed; while the rest leapfrog from the innovation--the momentum is next to impossible to stop. (For the sake of some accuracy, the complete inability to control Napster's peer to peer technology was the real problem feared by the industry.)

The reason Lars is bitching is because he wont make his 2 cents an album i can't total blame him for this LOL
Youtube has done basicly the same thing for video that Napster did for audio. Why is one allowed to exist and not the other?
