John Buckman, Magnatune, Bookmooch, Why Should the Film Industry Use CC?

00:06 → 00:10

They should use Creative Commons, because if you've ever been to a film festival

00:10 → 00:13

and you've seen some of the most amazing films of your life,

00:13 → 00:15

and almost none of those ever get distributed.

00:15 → 00:19

They all just go away and no one ever sees them except for the people at the festival,

00:19 → 00:23

and that's just a crime, to have all that good work, all those years of work

00:23 → 00:28

just destroyed, and Creative Commons is a way for all those films that don't get picked up

00:28 → 00:30

by the commercial distribution network to get seen by people

00:30 → 00:35

and a lot of businesses like Star Wreck, but like the Blair Witch Project studio,

00:35 → 00:38

have released stuff into Creative Commons and then sold DVD rights,
