I really wouldn't worry about this. Cable access gets away with murder because of it's low visibility. When broadcast comes into play and you're profiting from someone else's material you'd probably want to secure the proper licenses for the anime and the music... but when we talk about cable access, where one show might get a dozen viewers in a single airing, no one really wants to persue the producers because the impact that the show has is so small. The legal fees just to have a cease and desist letter drafted and sent are more than any production company wants to spend on some otaku in upstate new york who is really just enjoying a hobby.Ashyukun wrote:While this sounds liks a really neat idea- especially since we get a number of NYC stations, but I think you're probably going to run into problems with copyrights if you're planning on broardcasting AMVs.

Ed Koch, perhaps?
