Shady Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 Yes, Young can refuse. It's his right, his property. Just like Trump can deny Young accommodations in any of his hotels for any reason. 'The owner has the right to refuse service/product for whatever reason'. So than a baker, also having his right, his property can also refuse, correct? Quote

On Guard for Thee Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 In fairness Im sure we all know that as we speak, there are bands in bars all over the place playing music that is copyrighted, and without permission and paying the royalties. Chasing that down would be crazy. However the venue within which Trump chose to infringe that law is a little bit different, I would say. Quote
Wilber Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) I just want to know why Young can discriminate on the basis of political ideology and refuse to allow somebody to licence his song for an event, but a Christian can't do the same? If that particular Christian actually wrote the Bible or held the copywrite, they might be able to depending on what was used. Of course there is no copywrite on the Bible, or cake. It's just a cake.

So discriminating based on poilitical ideology is allowed, but not on religious basis? How do you come to that logic? Quote

Shady Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 Um no, its copyright. How did you figure discrimination... If somebody wants to purchase a song to use for an event, you cannot discriminate against them. A song writer that forbids Republicans from purchasing the right to use their song at events is discriminating in the exact same way a Christian baker would be discriminating from allowing a gay couple to purchase their products to use at a wedding.

Young in no way supports Trump (hes actually a Bernie Sanders supporter) and the song is his property so he has every right to decide who uses it and for what purpose. Nothing to do with discrimination, unless you somehow think putting an X on a ballot is also somehow discriminatory. Quote
WWWTT Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 I just want to know why Young can discriminate on the basis of political ideology and refuse to allow somebody to licence his song for an event, but a Christian can't do the same? Have you provided an example of where it was proven a Christian fundamentalist songwriter has denied another group from using their material? I'm guessing no.

WWWTT Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 So than a baker, also having his right, his property can also refuse, correct? Totaly false buddy! A SONG is NOT the same thing as a CAKE! If you can not see the difference, then you have some serious problems with reality and may have dimensia? If Neil Young lets other parties use his property, it may adversely effect it's value. You keep on this stupid comparison to try to win some argument that you have going on in some other thread/debate! Therefore it's thread drift!

Wrong. When your local NHL team wants to play a song at one of their games, they have to get permission from whoever holds the copyright. When you buy a record, it is for your personal use only.

As for whether permission is actually required to use a song... http://fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/introduction/getting-permission/ -k I think Trump can throw Young a few dollars to compensate. But it's not something Young wants associated with his track. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use Fair use is a limitation and exception to the exclusive right granted by copyright law to the author of a creative work. In United States copyright law, fair use is a doctrine that permits limited use of copyrighted material without acquiring permission from the rights holders. Examples of fair use include commentary, search engines, criticism, parody, news reporting, research, teaching, library archiving and scholarship. It provides for the legal, unlicensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author's work under a four-factor balancing test. Some ambiguity here, I can't seem to download the track for free, and if I do I violate copy-write law. but Trump can use the song in a campaign without cost. Something amiss here. Also Trump would be a bit upset if I used something of his without compensating him for it. We are talking about a very very rich man who can easily afford to pay to use the song. But again, it could simply be that Young does not want his song associated with Trump. Quote

Yes they can. If you asked permission and the answer was no, then you have no choice but to accept that answer or risk getting your ass sued if you go ahead and use the song. Quote

When your local NHL team wants to play a song at one of their games, they have to get permission from whoever holds the copyright. When you buy a record, it is for your personal use only. Remember Napster? Yes...kinda...sorta. Most public commercial performances of copyrighted music are routinely granted permission by license from ASCAP (in the U.S.) Many businesses use recorded music in the course of the day....from radio station bumper music to hair salons to restaurants. Permission/cost to use recorded performances is granted based on how/where it is used. Royalties are distributed back to the artists, publishers, etc. http://www.ascap.com/licensing/licensingfaq.aspx#general In the case of the NHL, there is probably a league-wide license that grants permission to use ASCAP material.

cybercoma Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 The issue isn't about copyright, it's about discrimination.Obviously you don't want to recognize licensing and copyright laws because it exposes how stupid your characterization of the situation is. I mean, do you really believe that I can make gay hentai porn with Mickey Mouse and make money off it as long as I offer Disney a fair price for using their characters? Quote
cybercoma Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 If somebody wants to purchase a song to use for an event, you cannot discriminate against them.He's not "purchasing a song." He would be licensing the song. You can't actually purchase songs. He could purchase the album, but even then copyright laws apply and are written in the liner notes of every album sold. He could buy individual songs from iTunes, but when you buy from iTunes (or amazon or anywhere else for that matter), you're licensing the music not buying it. You're also subject to the same terms. So hey, if Trump wants to buy Young's album, he can. If he wants to perform it publicly, then he needs to get permission from the original artist, since it's their intellectual property. But go ahead and pretend that this is about discrimination and ignore everything about copyright and intellectual property. It's making this whole discussion hilarious. Quote
