Not availible in Canada, no doubt due to our lack of copyright laws.

The music label thinks it is being clever by blocking youtube, but the real threat to their business is the fact that I have a full-size CD press in my basement turning out full albums which I sell for $5 each.  All of the sudden, I'm a multi-millionaire and a living god.  I win, they lose.

What's worse is that even though the EU has a common market (leave alone the Schengen treaty), such restrictions still apply in some cases between countries because of copyright issues. :bleeding:

I'm surprised that there hasn't been much effort to put together some EU-wide copyright authority.  Or maybe there has, and I just didn't notice due to my distance from the situation.

I haven't taken in any new information in years,

You should read other things besides Languish.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

There is a trademark/patent authority but not a copyright management organization. However, the EU Commission just began working on a whitepaper presenting a proposal for a pan-EU system, over complains concerning iTunes store (it is available in some countries, but not in others, due to a patchwork of copyright regulations).

First comment on the youtube video:

"She should grow some balls and sing "I ate some pussy and I liked it!".

Yep, the pretty part goes a long way.  They posted some pics of her at the beach on idontlikeyouinthatway.com & I approve :)

Don't remember.  Sounds like me, though.

Agree on her tits.  She's fantastically hot.

Her songs are no longer hits on the dancefloor...and while I found Ur So Gay to be amusing, I think she sucks. She can't sing and her I'm an individual attitude is :yawn:  I hope her 15 minutes end quickly.

Ugh, I agree with you!
I want my mother fucking points!
