Karen post: 2026 NABBA Championships in Ft. Wayne Indiana

I would like to notify all legal authorities that the NABBA championships are being streamed right now for free on youtube and I am sure there is no way all copyright requirements are being met. Publishers and copyright holders are being injured right now as we speak. This can not be allowed to happen. I demand that all copyright enforcement personnel descend on Fort Wayne Indiana and stop this blatant copyright infringement.

Is the National Amateur Body-Builders Association using tracks for their competition? FloSports?

In all seriousness - there is some great music happening and it's enjoyable for free on youtube

I think they got around it by not mentioning what pieces of music were played ---

 

one group would play some insanely incredible beautiful music 

and then the next one would go

 

can't litigate if you can't list it
