Gideons "facts" are nothing more than figments of his own imagination. Take a look at his sig line for proof of this. "fair use is never a copyright infringement" it says. Fair use is decided on a case by case basis on all the facts. Calling something "fair use" is not a legal basis for anything . replace "copyright infringment" with "murder" and "fair use" with "self defense"
murder is always a crime but self defense is never a murder
hogwash double talk  calling something self defense doesn't mean it is or will be accepted.
The Supreme Court of the United States described fair use as an affirmative defense in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music. This means that, in litigation on copyright infringement, the defendant bears the burden of raising and proving that his use was "fair" and not an infringement. |
we have had this arguement before your trying to twist a statement about scope changes to try and argue that the fundamental principle of legal precedent doesn't apply to fair use.
once the precedent is set a fair use is established, pvr did have to go back into court and fight their way to the supreme court again to "prove" they had a right to timeshift just like a vcr.

i have never claimed an expertise in all areas or running a pay site. It one of the reasons why the buy some content and make a paysite and prove it to us bs of robbies is unreasonable. I would have to spend a lot of time learning things outside the scope of my core focus. Failing lots of times with content creation, design etc just to get the basic foundation that already exists.

no independent musican demanded that i make myself a rockstar before they would even consider, i don't have the talent to do that.
however people like robbie keep saying things like buy 10k worth of content and make a multimillion dollar pay site and then we will listen to you.
the principles were tested using adult content and then adapted to work for musicans because of certain commonalities. they work for musicians (which was the stretch) since it only worked for porn.
