I was going to reference the thief on the cross who was informed that his sins were forgiven in heaven yet still had to rightly face the temporal punishment for breaking the laws of man.

Like Beregond at the end of The Lord of the Rings. Sort of. Removed by Elessar from the Tower Guard for having (1) left his post and (2) drawn sword (and blood) in the Hallows, but because he did so in order to save Faramir from being killed by his deranged father, Denethor, appointed by Elessar to be captain of Faramir's household in Emyn Arnen. Which has a nice bit of familial circularity, because in passing we had learned that Beregond's distant ancestors hailed from Ithilien.

Most interesting that Beregond's son Borlas, living in Ithilien, would apparently have been the main character in the sequel, "The New Shadow".

I would rather have the complete video with sound muted where necessary.  Removing both just compounds the problem - now there are key visual moments deleted from the videos.

In cases where DCI only lacks permission to synchronize video to music, they should provide the complete video and complete music separately.

And, of course, if you had the computer skills and programs, you could splice the audio back in for your own entertainment.

The only man who watches Les Miserables and roots for Javert to catch Jean Valjean.

(I appreciate the Graduate reference, though, and Jeff's Star Wars nod as well.)

that's no moon, that's a space station

DCI would then be guilty of providing seperate video and audio products (with purposeful time-sync capibilities) in order for their consumers to break copyright law. That would make DCI culpable in a court of law.

my thought exactly. DCI could claim innocence on intent all they want, they'd lose

In the case where the corps' original audio has to be muted due to copyright or sync license issues, I think DCI should have an alternate audio track on the DVD that dubs in Yakkity Sax instead.

Yakety Sax; recording copyright owned by Sony, print copyright owned by Hal Leonard. Try naming a song in public domain next time :sigh:

Is there statutory or case law on this?  Perhaps comparable to inducement or contributory infringement in patent law?

What are synch rights meant to cover: (1) The final product of synchronizing the 2 things?  (2) The right to take the 2 things and synchronize them?  (3) the right to own the results of one's own efforts required to synchronize them?  Or (4) something else?

This would not be a direct case of breaking copyright sync law, but of facilitation in order to help someone to break the law.
