  1. P.S. - Musclebud, they are giving a reasonable explaination - sync rights. That is perfectly reasonable. As far as Phantom - did you ever think that maybe that was at the request of the corps? A la Crown 2010, when the kid blew out his leg? (which was HORRIBLE... happened right in front of me)
  2. seriously? Now I remember why I never post on here - you people don't listen. At all. How can you ##### about the stuff on Fan Net being pulled? You want DCI to leave it up and get SUED over it? Again, if I'm gonna get mad, it's going to be at the corps staff that went ahead and programmed material they weren't 100% sure they could get copyright or sync-rights for. You people complain a lot, but don't offer a solution. Because there ISN'T ONE, other than doing stuff that you know you can get permission for. And stop "threatening" on a DCP forum to stop buying DVDs or Blu Rays from DCI. I'm sure they'll live without your $100, bc there are plenty of people that understand the copyright world and realize where the fault lies. Anytime you do ANYTHING that isn't public domain, you risk not getting rights. PERIOD.
  3. wow... You people are amazing. So quick to blame DCI. Do you REALLY think that DCI just CHOSE not to get sync rights for this stuff, bc of money? Do you really think they want to be answering the phone calls and emails from you people complaining about the black-out on your DVDs? Trust me - they didn't get the rights bc they couldn't. Period. Honestly, the Scouts staff knew this was a possibility when they got permission to arrange, and chose to go ahead with it. When you get arranging rights, you usually can get a pretty good idea about sync rights. TRUST ME, they knew. And don't blame DCI for "tricking" you into buying DVDs and then telling you about the rights issues. I am sure they tried until DVD production/distribution began, and finally had to make the decision that they did. It is absolutely 100% the corps responsibility to make sure they pick music that won't have issues, in my opinion. Just bc DCI has to secure sync rights doesn't mean they are going to check up on corps repertoires in the spring and say "hey, you may want to re-think...". That's not their job. I guarantee you won't see a DVD from the Scouts with the full show - I spoke with someone very close to the corps, and the sync rights were DENIED. Not TOO EXPENSIVE. DENIED.
  4. yes, boo the judges!!! How dare they score the best drum corps on the field higher than the other drum corps!!! Stupid judges... how can they continue to give the corps that marches and plays better than all the other corps the gold medal?!?! Oh those silly, kooky judges... Fan favorite show does NOT always equal the best performed show. I am a HUGE BD fan, and I will even admit that this years show was a little out there. But the fact remains that they march better than everyone else, their design is beyond everyone else, and they play better than everyone else. I - and they - don't really care if you don't like it. I can almost guarantee there are some judges that didn't dig their show. But there was NO denying that they were the best corps on the field. This is exactly how I felt about Cadets 05.
