It's funny how I just saw a comment 3 minutes ago saying "why are you deleting our comments?" and now it's gone.
Fuck this channel and the stupid shit they're pushing.
[QUOTE=Scot;49627130]Less reaction videos is a good thing, godspeed on your holy crusade FineBros.[/QUOTE]
Setting precedent for more stupid future copyright claims isn't though.
[QUOTE=Marlamin;49627258]I don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. Their specific format of "react" videos (god knows what that hell that is) seem to be the thing they're licensing out.[/QUOTE]
And their format is literally having people watch something, then talk about it a bit.
They're licensing that. Years ago, before Elders React was a thing, there was a channel they had shut down called Seniors React, run by some old dude in an old folks home and it was basically them reacting to videos.
Now, I could understand the name being a problem (to an extent), but they could just have requested the series get a name change.
Instead they had the channel shut down on "copyright grounds" and then released elders react.
[QUOTE=Tacooo;49627132]Oh boy, if they get away with this I'm sure we will see the slow death of Youtube. What's to stop Pewdiepie from copyrighting let's plays next?[/QUOTE]
Sony just tried, but the term was already owned for another thing.

Watch as this comment is not gonna be deleted[/QUOTE]
Read the capital letters too.
I wanna pay for the license and make a reaction video to one of the FineBros' original content that is just me staring at the camera in disappointment the whole way through.
[QUOTE=bdd458;49627142]Like, they're trying to turn YouTube into TV, and that's frieghtening.[/QUOTE]
TV is a sinking ship because the top execs are re-allocating funding to advertising and online marketing. If anything, YouTube and the content creators are trying to cash in more into the potential advertising money.
at first I thought this was something to prove how bullshit Youtumbe DMC notice is then I read on
The idea of them trying to copyright reaction videos is like Pewdiepie trying to copyright Let's Plays, it's fucking ridiculous.
Welcome to Youtube.
Where Content creation and originality is slowly being ripped apart and eaten alive by Greedy mega channels and Corporations.
Hooray for Free Speech!
Finally people are doing something about the fine bros's bullshit.
Don't worry guys, the fine bros will only take a "small" amount of revenue money

a small loan of a million dollars
Why they are still alive. Their reaction videos are paid and biased. What a goddamn jews
what the fuck happened today like 20 people all got simultaneously fucked by youtube out of nowhere. I mean this shit has been happening since the dawn of time but today was no joke (or at the very least this year, because people are just now making videos about all of the bullshit youtube's been pulling these last couple weeks)
[editline]29th January 2016[/editline]
also jesus christ i've never heard more evangelical corporate wanna-be bullshit than how these dudes talk, lord have mercy. "Franchise" "industry" "culture" all these motherfuckers need to do is add some "synergy" drops in the midst of all that decrepit boardroom talk.

Lowest common denonominator.
Haha, "Our format", holy shit the fine bros are awful.
How would youtube go ahead with this?
Its just going to mean that less people make those kinds of videos, and in the end, youtube making less money.
they've become a literal satire of themselves
I unsubscribed and stopped watching their videos a while ago when some guy posted about how they made some other old people delete their reaction videos so they could make their react series
-snip (Because I'm paranoid about someone using what I said to blackmail YouTubers and make things infinitely worse)
they arent though?
this is what they said
[quote]NOTE: We do not own the idea of reaction videos nor would we shut down anyone making reaction based content. Of course you can make your own react videos, but REACT WORLD is an opportunity to localize versions of our specific series. This is also a way to create a community on YouTube of like minded producers and fans who want to work together, and benefit from the guidance and resources that we can provide around the specific FBE shows that we are making available through the React World program.[/quote]
i think you can ask to be part of their videos and stamp a big logo on your boring video or something
Hope those fuckers dont go through it though, or everyone putting "react" on their title is gonna get notifications and fucked over first and then ask you if you arent part of it.
ill copyright "video" so everytime someone says "video" they will have to pay.

look at this man
react to him
this is like one of those fucking terrible ideas on Dragon's Den, you just need Duncan Bannatyne to give them a great big scottish bollocking/reality check.
I love the positive spin they put on it. Like this benefits anyone besides them.
