Not at all. Galleries don't necessarily own the work they're showing, likely can't legally modify the paintings & that painting is likely 1 of a kind vs a copy meant for a specific application. The musicians/engineers were paid for their work, and, barring some gross legal oversight on Universal's part, everyone involved understands that the audio can be edited when they do this.
- 101008 5y agoI guess the previous comment was from an artistic point of view, not from a business/legal pov.
- causality0 5y agoThis is completely missing the point. If I worked tremendously hard on a piece of time-based art like music or film and someone regardless of legal right, changed the experience of every moment of it, I would be tremendously sad.
- dfxm12 5y agoIf you want to talk about your personal feelings, OK, I can't tell you how you may or may not feel. This was simply not expressed in your original post though, so no, I didn't completely miss the point.
- causality0 5y agoThis was simply not expressed in your original post I feel bad for the artists and engineers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- dfxm12 5y agoThese hypothetical anonymous people, from your first post, are not you, from your second post, and no amount of snarky emojis will change that (and this doesn't even touch on the rest of your first post).
- causality0 5y agoDid I really need to spell out that it's emotionally like a gallery stamping a barcode onto a painting and not legally like a gallery stamping a barcode onto a painting? Very well. It's emotionally like a gallery stamping a barcode onto a painting. Sorry for the miscommunication.
