Webloggers have to pay

15 December 2009

Here in the Netherlands Buma/Stemra is a music license organisation and they want to charge webloggers when they embedd music videos in their weblog. They are talking about 650 euros per 30 music videos. That’s a lot of money for small bloggers like me that just post for fun and really can’t afford to pay that much money. I think that this is just stupid. If Buma/Stemra wants to be right, they should really talk to the websites that profide music videos and give people the change to embedd videos. At YouTube a user can forbid the watcher to embedd the video, maybe that’s an idea for the other video websites.
