Kewl, the Chinese Mafia supported by Naruto... Believe it!JaddziaDax wrote:you could try adding the music to your listing O.o - thats why it wont let you upload O.o did you follow ALL of the instructions on this page?
and as for using downloaded footage the best option is not to... comes with subtitles and the codecs will leave particles and other distortions in your video...
also i have heard that bootlegs or "hong kong" imports help support really bad crime syndicates so i wouldnt recommend them on a moral ground (even though they come neatly wrapped in a nice little package, and faster than the legal licensed DVDs)

I don't think that's a good idea. That's one of the reasons why DVD ripping is sometimes considered illegal. Besides, it's being a douche bag.staces wrote: A lot of people here join sites like NetFlix (or however it's spelled) so that they can get the DVD sources that they need without shelling out all the money for all the DVDs. So that might be your best bet in regards to footage.

Hypocracy asside, it's actually considered to be okay enough to mention here - as is buying imports, ripping them, and selling the discs to someone else afterwards (what I did with 13 Bleach DVDs in the heads up forum last summer).Kumatora wrote:I don't think that's a good idea.

That's rather strange. It's practically pirating. Personally, I'll never resort to it unless I'm borrowing someone's DVDs.BasharOfTheAges wrote:Hypocracy asside, it's actually considered to be okay enough to mention here - as is buying imports, ripping them, and selling the discs to someone else afterwards (what I did with 13 Bleach DVDs in the heads up forum last summer).Kumatora wrote:I don't think that's a good idea.

I did the Netflix thing as well. To me it makes sense, and it definitely seems like the most reasonable option for people with tight budgets who cant afford to just go out and buy tons of anime DVDs at the drop of a hat. Those things are very pricey you know...of course series I really enjoy I wind up buying, but as for first viewings, Netflix does the trick for me.

It's been illegal to copy movies since people had the ability to copy VHS tapes in their own homes using two VCRs. It's been illegal to reuse movies since a LONG time before AMVs were invented. Having a teacher bring in a videotape that the school didn't buy the rights too (AKA every movie-version of a book ever shown in English classes) is ILLEGAL.Kumatora wrote:I don't think that's a good idea.

I don't think the fine people at DVD laws land were like "we need to make DVD ripping illegal so those pesky nerds won't get them on Netflix and copy them to make music videos!" That was probably low on their priority list.
Moreover, I personally don't belong to Netflix, I buy the DVDs that I use to make AMVs, and using them for AMVS is just as illegal, and even just as "douche-baggy" even though they are mine. Netflix, and Blockbuster and any other rental chain pays a lot of money for the privillage to rent out a movie. One DVD for Blockbuster costs more to buy than it would you or I in a retail store, because the companies sell them the rights to rent. The companies make their money back, they're not being cheated out of anything.
