VidAngel

There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.

VidAngel kinda sounds like a porn site.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

And VidAngel is getting sued by Disney, Lucasfilm, 20th Century Fox, and Warner Bros.
http://www.sltrib.com/news/4006414-1...companies-file
The lawsuit contests claims by VidAngel that their actions are legal because VidAngel sells instead of rents programs to users.Through VidAngel's site, users can "buy" a movie for $20, view it and then "sell" it back for $19 in VidAngel credit that same day.

The whole "content-edited movies" concept didn't work for CleanFlicks and I suspect the Courts will not accept the idea that one can buy the move, watch it, then sell it back to the same vendor on the same day and therefore because you own it for the duration that you're watching it you can edit the content.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different.

Originally posted by Donuthole View PostRight. Unlike the CleanFlicks case, this argument isn't expressly about the protection of artistic rights. (That would probably be a part the argument if there weren't such a better, dead-bang winner of an argument to make). I assumed (silly me) VidAngel had a bunch of streaming contracts in place. Unreal that they thought they could establish a viable business model by essentially pirating content.
In theory, it's similar to Red Box. I'm not sure if Red Box needs special permission to rent the blu-raysPart of it is based on academic grounds.

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Anyone heard of this? It seems to be along the lines of Clean Flicks but with some other loophole they are trying to use to edit movies. However, you can stream any movie for $1. So whether you edit the movie or not, why wouldn't you use them to rent a movie since they are cheaper than every streaming service out there?"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Pretty sure it's been discussed in a thread somewhere, including the lawsuit against them by Disney, et.al.
