He gets it. He knows what it's all about. And he not only makes money at it, but has a legion of fans that he really does identify with. FWIW, I just downloaded the fan produced video. It's awesome. Very cool to see this. kevin – I’m glad you mentioned NIN and Trent Reznor. He gets it. He knows what it’s all about.

I love how Trent Reznor is handling all the NIN stuff. He's all about open access cameras by fans. There's even a fan produced DVD in the works of collective concert footage which I'm excited about.

I've been hosting most videos on my site and on Vimeo. It's a lot less hassle, that's for sure. <b>kilax</b> - You should be ok, but it all depends on the record company or the TV or movies studios (for video related works) and if they want to pull rank on YouTube. It is rather silly. <b>delmer</b> - You make a really good point. It's not like it's quality stuff that can be professionally duplicated. It's a $200 digital camera in poor lighting. And the idea that people find something they like and then purchase it is something I've said for over 10 years now would be a positive if they would just embrace the new medium. avitable – I agree with you completely.

It's not like a fan is going to make a recording of what is likely a modest-quality YouTube recording (no offense meant ... but you said it was from your camera) and say "this is good enough -- no need to buy the album." After watching "United Breaks Guitars" I watched some more Dave Carroll/Son's of Maxwell videos on YouTube and decided to buy a couple of their mp3s. (They didn't get rich off me... but it was two more dollars than they had before.) I can’t imagine a band wanting footage of one of their shows taken down.

This seems really silly. We just uploaded two vids from the TSO concert this weekend and were wondering if they will get pulled. This seems really silly.
