Do I need to bold the salient point in a three sentence post?

So what's the solution? You're running Youtube which gets 100 hours of content uploaded every minute. You also have tons of corporations breathing down your neck with lawsuits at the ready for even a moment of their content being uploaded to your site and partners demanding to be paid for their views. How do you make it work?

Do you hire people to watch every moment and verify everything manually as far as who uploaded what and what rights are allowed on that content or do you have an automated system that accepts rights requests from publishers and automatically handles content as they request while allowing uploaders 30 days to dispute claims? Or something else?

Inform the uploader that someone else claims their video and let them dispute it before the claim goes through. This would also prevent claims for critical content that is within fair use.

My understanding is that under the DMCA, Youtube is required to comply with copyright holders demands immediately in order to keep their protections from copyright liability.

When monetizing videos, Youtube lets you know that they aren't responsible for determining fair use, the law is. As a service provider, that isn't their job anyway.

Which is shit, no matter which way you slice it or who or what is responsible in the end. It's just assumed that anybody who makes a claim does so rightfully. Of course Youtube can't determine that when a video is uploaded or monetized, not even with their resources. All you can do there is throw up your hands and curse the way of the world, really.

Could try and change the law. Though it might be difficult to outspend the media corporations. That could be something Google could assist with seeing as it could help the long term viability and health of their content distribution platforms

I hope that shit stays broken forever, the more people are willing to give it a pass cause it works 'okay' the more people will forget to be angry at the real enemy, the DMCA. Some minor inconvenience of getting oneself unflagged is totes worth it.

Wii has a decent library if you dig around. Myself I have 26 games. And Wii is cheap enough that theres plenty to pick up if you look.

Sure you can steal it, but fuck pirates. Suck my hairy cunt.

Fun fact: Jay-Z hasn't done anything worth listening to since he got out of retirement.  It was purely a business decision and it shows now more than ever.

The thing that surprises me most is that no matter how awkward he sounds trying to morph himself from trend to trend (for instance, his bad attempts at the ASAP Rocky Houston flow/swag rap, talking about molly, etc), people eat that shit up. His recent albums have been panned by critics yet people still love that shit. I just don't get it.

I "get" why Lil Wayne is still popular despite sucking, but Jay-Z in 2013? Fucking mystery.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_studies

Quote
This disagreement has been called the ludology vs. narratology debates. The narratological view is that games should be understood as novel forms of narrative and can thus be studied using theories of narrative (Murray, 1997; Atkins, 2003). The ludological position is that games should be understood on their own terms. Ludologists have proposed that the study of games should concern the analysis of the abstract and formal systems they describe. In other words, the focus of game studies should be on the rules of a game, not on the representational elements which are only incidental (Aarseth, 2001; Eskelinen, 2001; Eskelinen, 2004). The idea that a videogame is "radically different to narratives as a cognitive and communicative structure"[9] has led the development of new approaches to criticism that are focused on videogames as well as adapting, repurposing and proposing new ways of studying and theorizing about videogames.[10][11] A recent approach towards game studies starts with an analysis of interface structures and challenges the keyboard-mouse paradigm with what is called "ludic interfaces".

Jesper Juul's Half-Real explores how videogames blend formal rules with the imaginative experiences provided by fictional worlds. He describes the tensions faced by games studies scholars when choosing to focus on the game or the player of the game. "We can examine the rules as they are found mechanically in the game program or in the manual of a board game, or we can examine the rules as something that players negotiate and learn. We can also treat the fictional world as a set of signs that the game presents, and we can treat the fictional world as something that the game cues the player into imagining and that players then imagine in their own ways (Juul, 2005)." Ian Bogost's comparative approach to videogame criticism also stands out as one of the more recent steps in the direction of proposing new ways of studying and theorizing about games. In Unit Operations, Bogost argues for explicating videogames through a new form of criticism that encompasses the programmatic and algorithmic underpinnings of games together with the cultural and ideological units (2006).

My distaste for Let's Plays and people who obsess over them is separate from how ridiculous the copyright violation claims are. Of course, GAFfers can't separate the two.

well reddit is a content aggregator, so it's kind of obvious that you will see the same links on every site. People race to repost shit to reddit so they can get redditpoints or whatever. Slashdot used to be like that over a decado ago, they used to get the news firsts and it was very common to see the same links on forums of the time.

if she was a real gamer, she'd break down how the ludonarrative dissonance and sorry pandering to tropes (halo doesn't even come close to passing the bechdel test) smother the game in an thematic malaise which she can't possibly relate to.
