My reading of p. 27 - 31 tells me that "fictional films" do not benefit from this expansion at all. IANAL, but looking over that section there are several distinctions made, and it does not appear to me that "fictional" works which also are both "transformative" and "noncommercial" would necessaril...

THANK YOU! Man I must be blind. I found that other page with just the creators and gave up too fast.

For someone who missed the con this year, is there anyplace online to grab an image or a listing of the complete ballot? I'd like to hunt down all the videos and watch them (not just the winners).

So, as you can see, we're using something for which someone is entitled to payment, without paying for it. Stealing.

Have we had this discussion before? Yes. But I think it's a threat most of us should be pretty used to living with by now. It's not like it's anything new, honestly. I agree that the concern is nothing new, but I also believe that this latest incident marks behavior "unprecedented" by the RIAA. I, ...

Just making sure I'm on the same page here. IANAL, but if the DNS and hosting were managed offshore, by people offshore, then yes ...
