YouTube is a collective cultural memory

The YouTube video portal has began to block German users' access to the official music videos of record companies after the licence agreement with German performance rights organisation GEMA, (Society for musical performing and mechanical reproduction rights) expired. The left-liberal daily Süddeutsche Zeitung writes that YouTube preserves artistic works for the future: "There is now the technical know-how to block access and filter more efficiently than YouTube currently does. But then the music industry would lose one of its most important platforms for self-promotion, and besides the network would have to redefine itself and YouTube as a collective cultural memory would suffer from a self-inflicted amnesia, because what you find there often can't be found elsewhere. If a user digitalises an ancient song and puts it on YouTube he is violating copyright, but at the same time he is offering the world something that otherwise would have perhaps rotted away on a single video cassette, that old fossil of the mechanical age. And no one wants that, surely."

Bernd Graff complains about the Internet

Under the title "Web 0.0" Bernd Graff attacks the Internet and in particular the leading players in the "participative Web". "They start 'quickie debates', get into an almighty uproar about arbitrary things and then rush on screaming to the next issue. They accomplish little and destroy a lot. These web debaters are the death of discourse, driven by nothing but a passion for indignation. Did I say indignation? Substitute that wherever desired with sabotage, conspiracy, malice, denunciation, contempt, scorn or mockery. .... The victim page internetvictims.de lists countless cases of defamation, insult, calumny and slander. It's almost enough to make you a fan of the elites, and certainly an advocate of the difference between responsible and - in multiple senses of the word - irresponsible knowledge."

Copyright law against pirate copies

The German government has passed an amendment to the German copyright law which will come into force next year. Under the new law it is still legal to make copies of digitalised films and music for private use as long as copy protection rights are not violated. However, the holders of such rights will in future be "given access to information held by internet providers... Until now, only criminal prosecution authorities were given access to this type of information, and even that only after providers had lost a court case to prevent it. You can just imagine all these private investigators hired by lobbyists surfing the Internet in hot pursuit of pirate copiers," Bernd Graff comments, criticising the law. According to him, copyright holders have only one goal: "The total protection of future high-resolution digital content against unauthorised copies."
