Sure, offline media often underestimates what online media can do, and often turns out to be less capable than online media. Even though some stuff in media online is taken from offline media, most of online and offline media are their own products. Take YouTube for example : It has TV-show episodes in there. What for? So fans or those who missed that episode can watch it. Why go through the trouble of recording and posting it? So many others would enjoy it. Thanks, Sir Mike!

I mean, lowering others so you could come out on top?

Oh yeah, please check my DA Journal and please comment as well, Sir Mike! I’ve seen and felt when laws are being changed to suit only the needs and wants of the ones ruling.

Laws should change to accommodate common sense. They have changed before, and they will change again.

Remixing content should be legal as long as remixer doesn’t make money without original copyrighter’s consent and should at the very least credit originalS used.
