frostbitepanda Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Proper copywrite law goes thus: Movie producers have the right to use any song of their choice in promoational ads for their movies as long as it's only a 30 second clip and has no words. The same criteria matches with TV shows and promo ads, as long as the promo does not air on an outside channel. It is perfectly legal to use a song with no prior permission or payment. For an advertisement that will be on many channels and will most likely include the words, however, the producer is legally obligated to ask permission and pay a sum of money for the use of the song. Though, I'm sure Coldplay did not charge them anything for using the song. I soud so official! :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitepanda Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I already explained... they have no say wether or not a movie producer can use their song in a trailer as long as it's under 30 seconds and has no lyrics. The producer has the right to do that and even the artist of the song can't stop them. And WHAT Gatorade commercial? I think you're thinking of the time that they turned down $5 million that Gatorade offered so they could use 'Yellow' in one of their ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airieslady Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Well, I had breast cancer in 97, went through a partial mastectomy and and 6 weeks of radiation and has not come back so far! So yes, cancer, it comes when you least expect it...didn't even know I had it...just went for a regular exam and bam! there it was, the kind that kills you in 6 months! It was a real shocker! So, I guess I can be called a survivor. And cheers to the band for doing this...that's why I love them so much! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedlogic149 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 One of my friends at school has been struggling with Leukemia (sp?) for three years now. She just had a relapse, and the doctors are only giving her two months to live. I need everyone's prayers for her. None of us want to lose her, and she doesn't deserve to go.
