| Just a suggestion on how people comment on videos, youtube allows people to post replies to others comments, and be notified when someone replies to your comment. It makes for a more lively exchange than the format you have adopted. |

Someone mentioned elsewhere that it has something to do with the inclusion of Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy".. and lack of permission to use it.
Meh, I dunno

Ooh, that sounds like it could be true. Too bad.

I agree that the Youtube version is better, but here's an explanation of why they can't use Shockshadow's song any longer.
If you look carefully at Shockshadow's Creative Commons license, it's an Attribution-NonCommercial 2.5 license, which means it was fine to use it in the video on Youtube since, at that point, LG15 was not a commercial venture. Since the creators are now receiving ad revenue through Revver, LG15 has, at this point, become commercial and Shockshadow's music cannot be legally used under the Creative Commons license. Shockshadow may have objected to its use once he found out LG15 was a commercial venture, or LG15's lawyers are just making sure that no copyrights are violated as to protect them from potential lawsuits.
As a side note, the use of Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" was always illegal, even when LG15 was non-commercial, since major labels don't use Creative Commons licenses (even if they should!). Danger Mouse and Cee Lo have put out one song ("What You Sittin' On?" on the Wired CD) under a Creative Commons license, but the GB album, including "Crazy," does not fall under such a license. It's surprising the creators have not taken down the video from Youtube or changed out the song, as it constitutes a continuing copyright violation (and now that the creators are making money of off this, they may actually be worth suing).
Interestingly, Warner Music Group recently entered into an agreement with Youtube which grants Youtube users a blanket license to use music from the WMG catalog in their videos. In exchange, WMG receives a percentage of Youtube's revenue generated from the ads running alongside any user video that makes use of their copyrighted material. However, WMG also has the option to have videos removed if they object to the way in which their copyrighted material is used. |

Using our videos:
Hey guys just a quick update. We have worked with Revver and told them that it is OKAY for you guys to use our videos, download them, edit/remix them, and make your own mashups. They should be approving them. If they don't, let us know and we'll get on their case. There is one caveat. You can't use songs in your videos that we use in our videos.... not up to us, it's up to the record labels and artists (the "Man"). Using our video and audio/dialogue is totally cool (there is a sweeeet lonelygirl15 animation up as a video comment to the "Daniel Crossed The Line" video that uses our audio and it's awesome). We are working on some pretty sweet ways to provide songs for you guys to use in the videos, but it's gonna take a little bit. Happy Creating!
Spread the word.

It is very likely LG15 material is permitted. George Lucas has made the entire Star Wars universe available for people who want to make fan videos. As long as they don't profit from it, they can do whatever they want with Star Wars material.

Thanks for the offer. An overhaul of the forum's skin is already on the drawing board. Thanks for the offer.
