World Trade Organization allows Antigua to ignore US$21 million of US copyr
2007-12-31 12:53:00
Here's some news that peaked my interest. The first things I thought about were music and Second Life... Would it be legal for someone from Antiqua to set up shop in Second Life offering music, movies, games, etc? This is a slow-moving story, and I believe these are all arguing tactics of nations. But, lets say it remains that US copyrights do not stand in Antiqua... hmm...World Trade Organization allows Antigua to ignore US$21 million of US copyright per year Arbitrators at the World Trade Organization (WTO) have granted the Caribbean country of Antigua and Barbuda a special dispensation to ignore United States copyright law.In their report, the WTO panel stated that Antigua possessed "no effective trade sanctions against the USA" and agreed to allow the country to ignore up to US$21 million worth of US copyrights a year. While this amount falls significantly short of the US$3.4 billion per year dispensation that Antigua was seeking, it is far higher than the US$500,000 p...

Happy Holidays from Coffee & Pajamas @ Sunset Jazz
2007-12-23 08:24:00
I myself celebrate Festivus. Not because I'm just a Seinfeld fan, but because I know every line... word for word... and I know every single possible thing there is to know about Seinfeld. I could answer any question about Seinfeld. (please challenge me if you'd like. You can send an IM question in Second Life, and I'll reply with the answer.)I believe in Festivus and have been celebrating it for 10 years now. It's something I just am inbred with, I can feel it.Here's Elfay Pinkdot and Saturday morning at Coffee & PajamasI just got the tree there in time for the picture, dropping it in place as the camera snapped.Some of us were just waking up, while with others of us it was obvious we hadn't slept yet.

Yes, if you're in second life a lot, you begin to look at the real world a bit differently. When you're out in the real world next time, take note, because....You know you've been in Second Life too long when...Your friend calls you on the phone and asks you to do something, and you say "Stop spamming me!"You begin to clean your house and keep looking for red, green, and blue arrows to move things.You go outside and see an overcast cloudy day, and think to yourself, "I wish they'd roll out Windlight already"You go out to a club and after 30 seconds want to go to another club.You would rather be called by your avatar name.You are now going by your avatar name.You think it's normal now to go out in public wearing a tailYou see a house for rent, and your first thought to ask the landlord is "how many prims"You notice your wrists start to float up every time you talkYou're walking through the city and you think to yourself "I could build this"You want to have sex with your loved o...

Music Venue Guide of Second Life - Send Submission Entries
2007-11-14 13:58:00
Current SLMC Group Discussion HERE----------Hi All,Several weeks ago I posted that one of our main takeaways from SLCC was the desire for a music venue guide - kinda like the back pages of the Village Voice with listings of clubs that regularly host live shows in SL. I am happy to report that we are nearing launch of a music venue guide for secondlife.com and are now pre-selecting submissions. If you are interested in having your venue included in the music site at launch, just send me an email with the form below filled out.Please note this will be an editorially controlled area of our site and that submission does not guarantee inclusion in the directory. We expect to open up submissions to all Residents by the end of the year but at this time will only be accepting submissions on a limited basis. Since I already mentioned it on this list a while ago, I thought it was appropriate to give the music community a 1st crack at this...please let me know if you have any questions.Thanks!...

BMI in SL - "Pay the Piper or Face the Music?" by Justine Babii of SLNN
2007-11-09 05:33:00
Via Second Life News NetworkPay the piper or face the music?by Justine Babii November 07, 2007SUNSET BEACH - If you own a venue or club in real life that hosts DJs or bands, then you are probably familiar with Broadcast Music , Inc. or BMI. BMI is an organization that has arranged to handle licensing fees for over 350,000 creators of music, the songwriters, composers and publishers of more than 6.5 million musical works.If you own a club or similar venue in real life then, you pay fees to BMI. Those fees gives your DJs the right to play the copyrighted music and bands to play cover songs for those compositions that BMI represents.If you own a club or other venue in Second Life, you might not be familiar with BMI yet, but there’s an excellent chance you will be in the near future.Currently, DJs in Second Life are not required to pay performance rights organizations such as ASCAP, BMI, or SESAC, but that may change in the near future. The current legal climate for Second Life DJs is ...

After the success of the ASpiRE! Pink Charity Ball, the idea became crystal clear. Although With the official holiday season about a month away I’ve decided this year I would like to start my own initiative called DJing for a Cause.

If you're looking for high NRG hardstyle, DJ Atlas Josten is da man! Atlas and I go way back to the early days of Club Republik. Atlas has a banging selection of hard hard peak hour rave joints, and has an excellent voice on the mic as well.I was impressed and mesmerized with House Divaz as well. A trippy eye-candy club build. In fact, as soon as I arrived, I forgot to even notice who was DJing or what was going on... I began poking at the lime jelly. Anyway, very cool visuals.
