    Using music in videos; Fair Use rules?

    Classical music...you can perform the piece yourself, but you cannot use a recording that is still copyrighted...i.e., less than about 70-100 years old (congress keeps extending the length of copyrights in order to keep Steamboat Willie (Mickey Mouse) alive)

    Using music in videos; Fair Use rules?

    The only use you will get away with is "de minimis" use...like 3 or 4 seconds...or if your video is 'newsworthy'...like if you ARE NBC news and you report on a concert with music in the background.

    Legal pictures

    I'm not sure I agree that my own looking at my gutters to see if they are plugged comes under 107...got a judicial opinion backing up that legal advice? Not trying to be an ***, but I am a Mass. attorney and I do not agree. Also I do not agree that the intent at the time is what counts...is...

    Accosted and Vandalized

    Is what DJI does with the Mavic legal?

    Mavic Pro 2 !?

    I think that unless you are really wealthy, bad...very, very bad customer service and self-crashing drones should be a concern Mine crashed on its own..in my yard and the tech report falsely came back saying that I took off too close to a tree (no trees for 30 feet, min.) the prop hit something...
