Re: You TV?
Yep, probably so as this was discussed a few years ago in the radio forum.
However like YouTube, how many companies are going to enforce this? Surely home videos that either use music outright or have it captured in the background have gotten away (so far) with this. For now I don't see anything that would be horribly different with content on Ustream.
I think the RIAA and MPAA are too busy busting the P2P people before they go after people who place or capture a piece of music on their video.
Is the person streaming in a shopping mall where the background music is captured a criminal? What about the parent recording their kids singing in with a TV show or a music program? Certainly the firm streaming KUMU FM on their phone is guilty...and the little mom and pop store playing music on their radio.
Singing "Happy Birthday to You" and streaming it makes every birthday celebrant a criminal.
Like podcasting, all commercial music content is off limits. What a sad world where commercial music is prevalent just about everywhere and you stand a chance of being a criminal because of the big media companies.
