What software are you looking to use? I would get ready for pain though, midi interfaces, soundcards, drivers and latency are all hassle.

A lot of people seem to be insisting on a baseline assumption that Baio took a chance, and was unlucky enough to get nailed. That's not really the case.

The Wikipedia entry on fair use is worth reading, and actually has a section that (in my view, and I'm sure in Andy Baio's view too) sums up the problem here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use#Fair_use_as_a_defense wrote:

...some copyright owners frequently make claims of infringement even in circumstances where the fair use defense would likely succeed in hopes that the user will refrain from the use rather than spending resources in his defense.

You know, I think there might be a point here worth looking at. The wikipedia supports the reasonable assumption that copyright holders often use infringement as a profit source. Doesn't really matter how fair your fair use is if you don't have the time/money to fight it in court? Unfortunately law isn't altruistic, it is a tool to be wielded by those with the deepest pockets.

I don't think Baio was taking an uninformed risk per se but the pixel art recreation of the Maisel photo was obviously backed by a rather hopeful reading of fair use. I would rather say imprudent than unlucky.

I would also say, I have very, very strong feelings about copyright and I am not a fan in the slightest of how Maisel / the US legal system / copyright law have treated Baio. He seems like a genuinely awesome guy who had a really really awesome idea but got screwed over by "the man".
