I agree the part about indemnifying Apple is a silly overreach, but this seems like a bit of an overreaction.
- tux1968 11y agoHere's what I don't understand. The music industry broadcasts its product over the airwaves, but if you dare copy and retransmit that with or without adding ads of your own, you're in for a world of hurt. So what is the difference being a blog-caster? Why exactly can't you dictate the terms of consumption every bit as much as the music industry?
