>Do I own the copyright to something that I filmed from television or a live concert or sporting event on my own camcorder or phone? ... Just because you recorded a live event or publicly broadcasted show onto your own recording device, doesn’t necessarily mean that you aren’t infringing the rights of the person or company that owns the copyright to the television show or performance. This is an area of copyright I have the biggest problem with. If I'm at a venue, copyright holders should not be able to exercise copyright claims over what I see/hear while attending, unless the ticket itself puts a restriction on recordation. In the latter case, that becomes a function of license enforcement that cannot be effected thru the DMCA. Imagine you record a video with friends - the band is playing in the background. Copyright law allows the band to takedown the clip.
