Were you making and $$$ from the FLASH file? Or was the movie a free download anyone could take? Did you provide a list of credits at the end saying that the music was the property of “xyz”?

I never did nor ever planned to make money off any of my movies. They were there to simply add another dimention to my website and online story.

Like I had said, I thought I had changed it enough to where the music wasn’t theres anymore, thus I didn’t need any credit. The other three movies do have credits at the end, as I did not edit the music found therein.

Right or wrong, the fact is they never viewed the movie to begin with, so credits or not credits it wouldn’t matter.

The email stated that they were told that the movies on my website contained music from their game. Only one movie of the four contained any part of their music. Had they visited my website they may have known this. Had they visited they wouldn’t have said ‘they were told.’

What’s worse is that the parts of the music I used from their game was nothing more than a drum cadence. A repeating, 3 or 4 stanza long series of drum beats. No melody, no harmony, everything of the sort cut out. Just the drums. All of this over constantly repeating percussion.

At least they were kind enough to request that I remove the music from the movie, allowing me to return the movie to the website once I found another suitable piece. Not that they could stop me from putting the movie back online after changing the music anyway, but still.

(...) Cool website. I did not see any other movies on your site? Did you have to pull them all down? That blows what they made you do. I won't be buying that game. =) -AHui A&M Productions (URL) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Did you email them to ask permission prior to using their work? Perhaps you could have simply gotten their o.k. to use a small snippet for non-profit purposes. (...) Obviously you didn't change it enough that it was completely unrecognizable. (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
