Get it while you can

It looks like YouTube is going the way of NAPSTER, damit. I knew it would eventually, free stuff never lasts long enough, LOL.

I thought you guys had a law to say they were only responsible for removing copyright stuff, not for ensuring everything was copyright free.

This is what happened with NAPSTER too, artists got pissed 'cuz we weren't buying music. I don't blame them at all, but I sure miss all the free tunes.

Factual news on the BBC? You must be mistaken.

Yeah Dale, you need to tune into Fox. O'Reilly is the man with the facts. You can trust Rupert Murdoch to give you the real gen.

BBC is a hotbed of communists, dole bludgers, lesbians and drug addicts.

O'reilly is a bloated, pontificating, self-aggrandizing egotist...too bad he is right so often!

On the other issue...Google owns u-tube and has some pretty deep pockets so I am guessing the lawyers will fight for a while and then settle. Viacom doesn't want to stop u-tube...they want cash!

Cam...please allow me a comment on this...

As an outsider, I see the things differentely than you..

I have seen this O'Reilly, and the name of the program is NO SPIN...meaning no BS, right??? Saw it a few times at the hotel.

Well my outside opinion is BS to that.. that O'Rilley's program should be called the SPIN ZONE..and he is the bigger spinner BS er..

He throws his opinions down the viewr's eyes and ears, as he pleases, he sails the BS boat where he wants, and if someone disagrees he cuts them, manipulates the interview and does not let them talk...if they agree with him..he just proceeds to "service the account"

So that is BS...and a lot of Spin...


I am not criticizing his reports or the contents thre of..

Just his conduct as a TV man

Oh yeah Giu...I absolutely agree with that. I just mean his OPINIONS on most stuff are what I agree with. Can't stand him personally and I DON'T like the way he conducts interviews. Still he IS the #1 watched news show...lots of people enjoy his antics.
At least his SPIN is in an OPINION show. CNN/CBS/NBC do it on the news!!
