who the fuck are you

no i don't fucking care whether you are right or not
i care about the op and the fact that he is, whether he wanted it or not, receiving medical advice from people with who knows what qualifications
cm.o is not a good place to debate medical issues
fuck off

maybe prematurely giving up is  a symptom of the adhd and a sign that the new medicine is less effective at dealing with your adhd than the last one? speak to your doctor about imo

i'm with tss, not hard to ask (maaaaybe if it's an obscure/ancient demoscene alias) and there's no real reason not to even if you don't necessarily have to. it's polite yea? and it does seem weird (dunno if i'd say shady) if you're silently putting thousands of things you didn't make on youtube and putting your own logo on it y'know?

whatevs, i'm not super vehement about this anyway haha

the way i see it, he never offered this up and had a huge amount of material there. why do that? why not promote it? because he didnt want people to know? its shady. he never made it known that he even had this channel on this forum or anywhere else from what i can tell, so its kind of shady and obsessive and shady creepy after talking to this guy, he gives me a pretty shady vibe. speaking of shady, looks like he removed a substantial amount of people's music like he said he would, probably because he knows he did something wrong...even though he's still rambling on like a robot in my inbox saying he doesnt think he did anything wrong. he said my complaining was analogous to him giving a copy of my music to one of his friends, instead of directing them to a website. instead, its more like putting a copy of his entire music collection online for all of his friends, because thats what it was, was it not? ahaha. dont answer that! let this thread sink to the bottom or close this shit.

anyway, im out. cristian, you're a weird jerk. ask people from now on if you're going to run your channel. this is chipmusic, theres no reason for you to have a channel like that and not ask people for submissions.

i know what happened & its irrelevant "how much" they used. unless you hate also all artists who used the amen break in their songs? no, you dont, because soul music isnt Your Scene.

likewise you dont hate all people who uploads songs to youtube. only when its Your Songs.  and maybe you even think copyright law is really cool, until nintendo tries to get Your Flash Carts banned in the EU, until the guy who made the miles davis comp gets sued by miles davis' photographer

im just t rying to highlight the victim complex that chip music has. isnt it a little naive to suppose that "we" are all on the right side of the law all the time & that it only serves to protect us from the CRIMINALS intent on destroying our scene & PARASITES who exist only to profit from our hard work?

what is the reasoning here? you want a monopoly on distribution of your own music? people can only get it DIRECT FROM THE SOURCE? why? what benefit is there to have things taken off youtube

theres an album on temp sounds solutions bandcamp called "remixes volume 12". is there not some contradiction to make twelve albums of bootleg remixes and then cry wolf when someone puts your freely released music on youtube?

:\

The thing I hate about this situation is that copyright laws are so ridiculously malleable.

Seems more like you are enjoying this aspect of it, to me.

Part (most?) of the issue is about courtesy and communication and the fact that it's SO easy to contact artists in the chipmusic scene nowadays. The community is so tightly knit and open in communication between artists and fans alike.

I'm not even going to go into the matter of that "profiting on other's work" bit. :\

As far as "taking action" is concerned, I wouldn't really consider asking someone to take your stuff down or letting them know that they really should contact the original content creators as "taking action against someone". That phrase is so inflammatory it's not even funny. :\

Maybe I'm alone on the idea that people profiting on derivative works doesn't sound like a bad thing.

Nobody is saying that. Once again, it's about communication and courtesy and not being lazy/perpetuating laziness.

Me personally? I still don't mind if people share my music with whoever, but now that I've come to find out that something of mine has actually been broadcast to an audience as opposed to, say, file-sharing, I can't help but feel slighted that nobody sent me a message or anything. It was exciting to see that somebody liked my junk enough to want to share it with a general audience, but once you get over that green excitement (which a lot of confident established mature artists probably have, maybe [not to say an artist grows out of the excitement of having someone appreciate their output[), the fact that they didn't take the time to say anything about it leaves just a tiny bit of a feeling of emptiness left behind. This is just my personal thought.

Edit: shoot. I didn't mean to type all that...
