monkey Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Here is a an article on the fight between You Tube and WMG. http://tech.yahoo.com/news/nm/20090720/tc_nm/us_warnermusic_youtube_3 There is hope that there will be peace in the valley someday and us kite videographers won't be on the short end of the stick. While there certainly is some hope in an article like this, my worry is what they are negotiating is simply music vidoes by the artists themselves over where other people use music for other purposes. But, it's bear watching close and thanks for the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John F Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I was just checking my YouTube videos and a couple more were idicated as having "Copyright Info". Checked them out and they played. Both had music owned by Sony. The info only told me that they were owned by Sony and I noticed that both were block from MP4 download. This seems very fair. My policy is not use WMG music but use Sony music. Not only that there was a pop that allowed you to buy the music on Amazon. What a great way to handle the problem. Hooray for Sony. I bet they sell a lot of music this way and we get to use their fine music in showing off our kiting prowess.

John Barresi Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Yep, had the same happen with Dock Play 3 (Will Smith music)... Better than the alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John F Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Just saw this http://tech.yahoo.com/news/ap/20090929/ap_on_hi_te/us_warner_music_group_youtube LOS ANGELES - YouTube said Tuesday that music videos from Warner Music Group Corp. will return to the video site in the coming months after a nine-month dispute over splitting ad revenue. In reading the article it looks like things will come out ok for everyone, including us kite balleters. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John F Posted December 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I was just checking out a video that I had posted on YouTube that had muted because of the WMG Google fight. This was of Reid Walcott at Summer Heat. They took the mute off. So I think the problem is now solved. Here is the video of Reid flying in MIB to Robert Buble singing Feeling Good. He took 1st. Enjoy and post those videos. John PS. You might check others that have been muted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
