[QUOTE="Steve Milner, post: 25345, member: 9"] Re: Why the "DJ" prefix? Marlow; I prefaced my post with "on a local level" and that is exactly the group on which I was commenting. I did not direct, nor did I intend to direct any of my comments at professional DJ's who work hard to earn their living.... I was really just having a laugh anyway. I'm not interested at all in debating who considers what to be pioneering and what to be thievery... but I also don't know of any rules that allow theft, if said theft is conducted during the act of being a pioneer at something else. Edit: It's amusing that the video you posted is linked from youtube, and is a BBC production, a group who has been notoriously strict about licensing and rebroadcasting their material without proper authorization and compensation. Somehow, I doubt that Youtube user "XOICES" has the proper licensing to present that production to the 55,852 people who have now viewed it free of charge. I also doubt that this user is a "pioneer" at anything at all. [/QUOTE]
