God fucking damnit, geth. And/or vanilla. Is there any reason to wipe our posts, really?
Anyway, well, that wasn't that much of a reply :P Because I don't see that it is obvious that the same reasoning would apply with the same force without the context of parody. So I could use an argument there.
But anyway, a major point in that ruling was that by being a parody song, it is unlikely to ever meaningfully eclipse the original, as the court did not find that parodies, well, do that. Parodies serve different markets, as they said.
But when it is not a parody, and instead a wholesale copy, it is different - there are numerous examples of covers of songs becoming very popular, and more popular than the original song
EDIT: and yes the last bit is a 180 from when I first addressed that last point in the law about possible harm, I had a smoke and a think

The problem in pre-YouTube days was that the best version of Sugar High - the one performed at the end of the movie - wasn't the one on the cassette/CD for the soundtrack, instead they only provided the studio version by the original band, which was lukewarm garbage in comparison

What do the warp numbers indicate at the end of each chat? it is verses average? does it correlate to a set amount of hours? the last one seemed like a rather slow thread and moved at 4.2.

How do you know it's not the same Rex Manning?
Curse this appearance-based Earth
The one in these videos is too tall, sings too much, doesn't even lift, and has not enough of a thick glorious beard.

literally no hominid ever has needed to get a duvet cover
aren't you younger than me? I'm pretty sure I'm not 73, so you can't be in the range to actually be duvet cover shopping
it is, honestly, a rather pointless thing
it is going
I have also been writing, sketching out my Tokyo presentation
it is a thing
i had to ask someone a couple days ago what a duvet cover is
i can't remember what they said

Oh I dunno.
I've been distracted by other Blizzard games for the last few weeks, but yeah, I intend to get back to Starcraft tonight.
it's a blanket
it's a blanket you put over your duvet because bedding is vulgar or something
sure is, friend
the life of the mind
oh my, we must cover the bed's ankles, lest we court scandal at the cotillion
i also had to ask what a duvet was
