VIACOM AND YOU TUBE? YOU DO THE MATH
Simple Voska, read the previous posts, Original story was about Viacom pulling listed copyright content. Much of it was from TV. I and other posters often noticed interesting bits of TV as a result of You Tube clips which, as infrequent TV watcher we would probably not ordinarily know about and consequently watched on TV what we might not have otherwise have watched. If Viacom pulls all its content from You Tube, it shoots self in foot and loses even more TV and Hollywoods oitebtuak future audience. Like I said earlier you have to read the full thread to make all the connections which requires concentration but TV only seems to exacerabte ADS. Piracy is certainly nothing new, and often does more good than harm, especially with early adopters and those who search the fringes of popular media and entertainment. As they used to say in NY in the 80s, "If you're not living on the edge, your probably taking up too much space. Now back to the Music programming. If anyone calls, tell them I am out.
