A woman is suing Prince after a video of her baby dancing was deleted from YouTube. One of Prince's songs, "Let's Go Crazy", was playing in the background. It wasn't edited in, it was playing in the background.

 

What a freaking douche. Isn't this the same guy that changed his name and scrawled "SLAVE" on his face to protest the actions of his record label, and now he's acting even more uptight and oppressive than they are?!

I agree. This guy is going waaaaaaaay overboard. And, unfortunately, he's got the money to hire someone to hunt these people down.

He should have been glad someone actually still listens to his music.

Just to be fair, Prince is not suing her, she is suing him for abusing the statute that authorizes the removal of said videos if used for wrong purposes.

 

 

But yeah, RIAA and Prince are douches.

I wonder if Prince even realizes this is happening then...

Can a moderator change the title of this thread?

 

 

Prince isnt suing anyone.

No need. I fixed it myself.

It will be a miracle when the RIAA/artists wise up an embrace the internet/technology.

 

That said, this woman is wasting a lot of people's time. YouTube can delete whatever they want from their site, it isn't a democracy.

I do agree the woman went too far and overreacted when it seems like all they did is just email her that it's been removed. The most they were going to pursue in the future is cancel her account. Big whoop. She's saying they're going to come after her and take her house. I would have been like 'okay, whatever'. However, it really is ridiculous in the first place that 'Universal Music Publishing Group' cared so much.
