The wealthy elite musicians and singers of the west just can't seem to accept austerity as the banking class has installed on so many of Europe's middle class. The music world is going after YouTube now in the latest blame to why their profits are down and musical performers such as kate Perry and Billy Joel are seeing their lifestyles dip a bit with less dinero for their jet-setting lifestyle. The music industry always seems to have a scapegoat to why they are not making billions of dollars like a CEO of a food company and without a doubt Kate Perry, Pharrell Williams, and little Billy Joel have a problem with this. the three performers were among a group that signed letters asking for changes to copyright laws as they blame YouTube for hurting their sales instead of giving these three Bozo's publicity that they would not otherwise get.
The three are among the more than 100 artists and managers who have filed petitions asking the US Copyright Office to amend parts of the 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The office has said it will study the effects of so-called safe harbour provisions in the law, which shield services such as YouTube from liability when users upload copyrighted material without permission. too bad so sad. Performers have for long been paid too much for their acts and bringing down internet companies that promote your garbage as entertainment for the masses will only hurt your own status as a celebrity in the long run. Billy Joel is an old little dipstick who should realize the days of making so much money to get uptown girls re completely over for him regardless of Pandora or Spotify. There is noting outdated about this law as these performers say and what is outdated is the money lavished to them through the years and which has declined thankfully and why they are so desperately attacking all these sites from Pandora, Spotify, and now YouTube.
Instead of trying to squeeze these technology companies out of more money these celebrities need to be learning to live with less and the environmental problems on this planet is caused by the greed we see of this small class of people just wanting more and more through the expense of others. These elites seek to use their political power to overwrite some digital law in 1998 that protects sites from YouTube from copyright violations and from the likes of these greedy performers needing more money to keep up with their fellow celebrities. They also made some absurd comparison that royalties trailed vinyl sales in income for the music industry as somehow YouTube viewers should be spending their money in the same way business owners nd wealthy older collectors with more disposable incomes spend on silly old records as YouTube is mainly viewed by the youth. Billy Joel is an old goat and like most aging stars makes enough money from the double standard income inequalities and corporate spending geared to performers like him instead of workers. it should be Billy Joel that should be paying and subsidizing his music and not corporations taking revenue away from actual workers of companies. The day that jobs pay the average high school graduate twenty five bucks a hour is when a Kate Perry can ask for more money for her bad music.
