like, i know what AT devs stance is on it, but what does the community think of it?
personally i think copyrights just a more advanced form of stealing. it's like going up to somebody and saying "hey, you can't sample anything because i'm a old-head that can't adapt with the times. you are copyright infringing because you want to make something with something i made, and that's not okay because nobody should be allowed to sample anything because it's MUH COPYRIGHT INFRINGMENT!!!1"
like free the samples man. let people do whatever they want as long as it isn't hurting anybody. sheesh.

Companies are strict. They don't care, families need the money, it's pretty simple.
Court fees are thousands of dollars, but you are not likely to go to jail unless it is something very strict.
some people work really hard to make their samples, what you're saying is pretty much the equivalent of "I should be able to copy off of your homework because it won't hurt anybody, right?"
no, i'm not saying that.
also, and their hard work will be worth it when somebody samples it .
Copyright isn't only economical. It can also be moral. An artist might not want their work to be associated to a message (political, commercial, etc.) they don't agree with. For example, the Rolling Stones exercise their copyright to prevent Trump from using their music at his rallies. It's simple: you created it, you have the right to decide how it's used, economically or otherwise. That's copyright.
"OOO YOU CAN'T USE MY SONG BECAUSE I DISAGREE WITH THE WAY ITS USED REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
"No pay, but it's great exposure!"
especially as a gay guy, you should understand why others' opinions should be respected. I can't stand you, sorry.
i do respect other opinions, homie.
and my man, you don't have to like me, but "especially as a gay guy..."
what the fuck does my sexuality have to do with t his. thats just blatantly crypto-homophobic.
you don't even understand what homophobia is, don't talk nonsense. You know exactly what I mean.
homophobia is the irrational fear or hatred against gay people.
"especially as a gay guy" followed by some condescending shit, kinda sounds homophobic
Gays have long struggled with the fact that they were not accepted. Fortunately, that has changed. This is what my sentence refers to, that you don't get it and you talk about homophobia shows why you struggle to understand the copyright issue. You bend everything around to fit you.
no, i don't bend everything around me but ight
"I hate the word homophobia. It's not a phobia. You are not scared. You are an asshole."
Clear words by a very wise man
yep
Complaining about sample restrictions on a website whose existence is threatened by violations suggests a similar trait.
Basically. And the owner’s word is law, so unless you want to keep arguing a stupid point, you should put this topic to rest.
that's not what i meant
my guy, i'm just trying to ofind out what everybody thinks of copyright and sampling on h ere. i don't want to change the way things are on here.
rule 1: follow Copyright
rule 2: sample things that are not copyrighted
