YouTube voor de rechter?


Enkele Amerikaanse mediaconcerns dreigen juridische stappen te nemen tegen YouTube. De nieuwe eigenaar Google zou voor miljarden dollars kunnen worden aangeklaagd wegens het illegaal verspreiden van televisieseries en videoclips.

Het gaat om bedrijven als News Corp., NBC Universal en Viacom (MTV). Ze klagen over televisieseries en videoclips die online staan en waar geen rechten voor zijn betaald. De bedrijven onderhandelen nu afzonderlijk van elkaar met YouTube over een financi

New TV Season has started

HEROES Season 1 (ep 1 & 2)

Heroes has delivered exceptional ratings since its premiere, and we’re even more impressed with the quality of the upcoming episodes,” said NBC TV president Kevin Reilly. “The best is yet to come over the course of a full season with this newest drama sensation.”

One gray cloud for Heroes: Appliance maker Emerson Electrics is suing NBC for using its product without authorization in a scene from the show’s pilot.

Emerson wants NBC to stop airing the scene in repeats and in syndication. (Oh oh .. A removed DVD scene later ???)

Battestar Gallactica S3 (EP1 / EP2)

The TV series season has started. The best series during fall and winter. Yeah. I’ve discovered Heroes, still following LOST en huge fan of BSG .. Anyone any tips?
