November 27th- Copyright II

On November 27th we finished up our conversation on copyright that we started two days earlier on the 25th. We watched some videos on Duke University Law School’s website. Each video had people familiar with the copyright laws discuss what they know and understand about copyright within music and movies. One thing that I found interesting is how people are making “mash-ups” of two artists and are able to sell it without the permission of the artists. I think underground and mainstream musicians should have the right to sample for free as long as they aren’t making money off of it and are just using it to get they’re name out there.
