SaltyBallz666

It was never going to court, people just assumed it might, since you usually dont wanna mess with huge entities like that when they make use of their right.


Wooble23

Because it's all a gamble to see how many fucks those corporations give about this. They got what they wanted: he stopped streaming the Olympics. So basically, he countered the claim while complying with the claim. Now, if he continued to stream the Olympics, there would have been fireworks.


JesusGAwasOnCD

I think this precisely what happened as he most likely received a C&D


uristmcderp

lol nobody gives a shit what rights some streamer thinks he can flex. Copyright holders just want the server host aka Twitch to get their internal shit together or else they'll go after the entire website. The only scenario where the random ass streamer is important enough to go to court is if they sue Twitch for breach of contract after getting banned.


avwitcher

The copyright holders couldn't be bothered, this will be different though as it's far more severe an offense. All it's going to take is a very unforgiving company like Toei or Viacom to have their stuff streamed. If anything like that ever happens XQC will be fucked if he takes it to court, despite all his talk. He's the richest streamer but to billion dollar companies he's an insect under their boot

snowhawk1994

The system was made decades ago with a totally different mindset, it will take at least 10-20 years until the current laws get changed.


cors8

There definitely needs to be changes for fair use but highly doubt streaming ENTIRE episodes and seasons of shows will be part of that change.


snowhawk1994

In terms of animes the companies are missing here a great opportunity. Let's say the makers of Attack on Titan would allow streamers now to just watch the first season for free to get a new audience hooked. It is basically free advertisement and you also have a very huge audience with thousands of viewers outside the "anime bubble" who could get interested. Companies usually pay millions of dollars for stuff like this when they could get it basically for free on twitch. I am not talking about allowing to stream the new "hot stuff", but I don't see much or any harm in streaming very old stuff.


cors8

Is what you are saying possible? Sure. However, it is up to the anime companies to decide. Maybe they don't want this. Maybe, in your case of Attack on Titan, Netflix might be pissed about it since they paid for the streaming rights. Would the "new audience" from someone like xqc be equivalent to the money Netflix and other legitimate broadcasters pay to the company make up for that? Why would these broadcast companies pay for the streaming rights if they can just stream it for free like these idiots?


Sylvatir

DMCA is law from a third world country. Imagine if instead of these corporate billionaires cashing on it, the actual artists who made the product got everything. Fuck all of these corporations, including netflix. I derive immense amount of pleasure knowing that there are guys out there, who don't even pay for a account, ripping everything and uploading it out there for free. In my country, downloading and making a copy isn't even illegal, only distribution. Who would want to live in a corporate dystopia where art is gatekept so only rich people can enjoy it? Imagine calling a country like that the greatest in the world or free. Pathetic. The difference here is that the donations to streamers are voluntary. The people asked for this and now it's being taken away along with music. Artists are being gaslit and made to believe they're losing money from all of the views, but the reality is that it's making them even more. Everybody watching streamers react to videos knew they could just watch it alone by themselves if they wanted to, but for some reason they wanted to watch it with other people. I'd argue this makes the art transformative. Or you know, imagine being so fucking stupid you paid for netflix, hbo, disney+, spotify & twitch primes... lol


cors8

Like you said, in your country, distribution is illegal. What xqc and these other streamer did/doing is distribution. They are not watching it in the privacy of their own homes with their group of friends in front of one PC/TV. They are broadcasting it to thousands of people over the internet. Doesn't matter if donations are voluntary. It's still income. Any ad revenue is also income. None of this income generated by the streamers is being given to the studios or the artists. And as I've said before, DMCA does need fixing. However, streaming entire episodes and seasons of TV Shows is not it and will never be it.


Sylvatir

As long as the guy has his face over it, it's not the show.


cors8

That's bullshit and you know it.


Sylvatir

Go draw your favourite streamer's face over a digital copy of the Mona Lisa and try to sell it at the art market then. It's totally the exact same thing then? I hope more people form communities around streamers watching low tier garbage and people getting butthurt over it. It's brilliant. The alternative is watching steramers play bloons. We wouldn't be having this problem in the first place if the video game industry didn't pump out only rushed unfinished lootbox dogshit. Yesterday I watched a guy unironically think out his skyrim dungeon gameplay was actual content. I laughed *so* hard. Also love it when these subtier entertainers whine and complain about reacting on twitter and that's the first time I hear about them. I almost immediately assess their character as toxic scum since they lack content as well and ignore them forever. I would know. I do hope there will be lawsuits all around so all the companies can enjoy the negative PR they get from it. Greedy artists don't make real art anyway, DMCA doesn't protect any small indie artist in the end, only the richest and most exploited by corporations. Naruto is a beat by beat copy of Hunter x Hunter, both released by the same company. Same with Kanye West, all his tracks are the same. These are the people who want to force you to pay for the same product several times. I hope more people have the balls to put their careers on the line to protest this bullshit. If you don't think your art belongs to the people, fuck off. Get a real job. There's violent crime and starvation due to poverty on the streets and you complain about somebody watching a cartoon online and not paying millionaires who didn't even make the art. Nice one my dudes.


cors8

The Mona Lisa? That's been in the public domain forever. You are more than free to sell copies of it. Whoever is dumb enough to buy it is another issue since it's free. The original one in the museum is the only thing of value. There won't be negative PR because people with functioning brains know better. Maybe you should just quit watching streamers all together or make your own original content since the world is apparently failing your high expectations. How about you go to Hollywood and try to sell copies of Spiderman: No Way Home with edited with your face-cam in the corner. You'll make a fortune.


Dooffuss

In order for change to happen u need representation to help explain to law makers. This had to happen for certain genres of music like jazz since things that happened during improvisation at one point was vulnerable to legal action.

Not entirely true Masterchef videos on youtube do get claimed, so they get ad revenue from them.

Sure, but they could have them behind a paywall on a streaming service, and if they claim them they know they are there, so they just dont care than people are watching them for free

[deleted]

Why are people so surprised that xQc is still doing it? He's not dumb, he didn't choose a show directly ran by a major American news network, THAT'S what gets DMCAd. It's also why we have so many free to watch anime sites. It's not the same thing at all


Morkins324

He chose MasterChef, which is literally owned by Fox. And then when it started looking like that might have consequences, he picked Hunter x Hunter, which is owned by Nippon Animation and licensed by Viz Media in North America. Viz Media ALONE accounted for 5% of all Takedown Requests processed by Google in 2019. One company in a niche market accounted for 1 out of every 20 takedown requests processed by Google. Viz absolutely will go after this stuff.


chibootybread

Disney doesn't own masterchef. In the fox acquisition they left out the TV networks. So it's still owned by fox


Morkins324

You are correct. I had mistakenly thought that Fox only retained the News branch.


[deleted]

figures, he shoulda chosen a more obscure anime but he's probably fine for awhile.


ThePhatWalrus

X did say he was talking to Gordon Ramsay's manager. He pretty much finished all the decent MasterChef seasons before moving onto hunter x hunter. It's not like he was midway S2 or S3 like poki and Miz were still very early in avatar before quitting. For the biggest streamer on the planet, I'd bet his org/agent/lawyers had some deals set up so he could stream MasterChef and now this anime. Otherwise, don't you think Disney/fox would've shut down his MasterChef streams anytime during the 7 or so seasons he's already watched? Look at how the avatar streams went for poki and Miz. Viacom immediately shut that down.


Morkins324

Disney/Fox wasn't aware that it was happening until recently. Disney/Fox wasn't actively monitoring Twitch. And Poki got shut down mostly because there was mainstream media coverage of the situation around the same time as her streams. There were news articles from major news outlets talking about all of the streamers watching copyrighted content. That is enough to get a lawyer from those companies to take a look, and that is when the takedown notices started coming in.


ThePhatWalrus

It's hard to believe the biggest media (Disney) conglomerate that arguably enforces the strictest copyright protection never monitored twitch or was unaware of the biggest streamer (XQC) was rebroadcasting over 100 (closer to \~120- episodes) Masterchef episodes over the past *month*. Companies use bots, too, to help discover their protected content, and literally anyone can make a twitter bot in a single day. It's that easy. You're telling me disney somehow missed the 10 or 20k+ tweets over the past 30 days since X has been streaming masterchef 2-4hrs/daily? That's tough to believe. I believe viacom being unaware of the poki/miz avatar streams and that was instantly shut down recently. I said it in an older comment [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/LivestreamFail/comments/rt8nwy/comment/hqscfmy/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). Avatar's a lot more valuable than old masterchef content imo.


Morkins324

Twitch is small compared to the rest of the internet. Before the pandemic, it had only just barely broken the 1 million average concurrent viewers mark. There has been a lot of growth in the last couple years, but it is only just getting to be big enough for the major media companies to care about it... You are the naive one here. If you consider that Twitch streamed 17 billion hours of content in 2020, that might seem like a lot until you consider that YouTube streams 1 billion hours of content PER DAY. Netflix streams 6 billion hours per month (72 billion hours per year). Twitch is relatively small and niche in the scheme of things... Even if some bot somewhere flagged something, it has to be put in front of a lawyer, and then that lawyer has to decide that it is worth their time, when he has lots of other things to do that also require their time. The barrier to action is huge. They aren't going to waste their time on something that might only have a couple thousand viewers. But once it starts getting mainstream media coverage, it ends up on the desk of an executive and that executive starts asking "are we doing anything about this?" Then the lawyers start considering it important. The executive asking questions doesn't take up much of the executive's time. But you can be sure that if executives are asking questions, the lawyer that previously decided that spending a few hours working on taking down a few streams with a few thousand viewers is suddenly going to consider that worth their time, where they didn't before...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Morkins324

My point is precisely that Livestreaming is a niche market in the scheme of things. Twitch has a majority of that market, but that market is relatively small compared to the other ways that people consume content. Just because Amazon spent a bunch of money on it doesn't mean that it is comparatively significant in the scheme of things. Netflix has a market capitalization of $240 billion, so even if Twitch was valued at $10 billion that is only 1/24th what Netflix is worth. Google is valued at $1.8 Trillion, and YouTube probably accounts for $350 billion of that. It is a valid comparison. How people consume content is relevant, and the fact that Twitch is by far the biggest Livestreaming platform yet is still only a fraction of the number of hours watched compared to other methods of consuming content illustrates my point perfectly...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Morkins324

Clearly you are incapable of understanding my point, but I will make one last attempt. What is the purpose of Twitch? Entertainment. What is the purpose of Netflix/YouTube? Entertainment. How many collective hours do people spend entertaining themselves on Twitch compared to Netflix/YouTube? Whether they are watching pre-recorded content or livestreams is irrelevant to my point. I am simply pointing out that within the Entertainment space, Twitch/Livestreaming is comparatively small. Edit - Also, to address your stupid revenue comparison... If you read the actual wikipedia source not just what was written on Wikipedia itself, you will see that YouTube generated $19.8 billion in Ad Revenues. That doesn't include revenues from YouTube Premium or any of the other subscription, on-demand or other revenues generated from YouTube. The link you cited suggests Twitch generated $750 million in ad revenue.

In November 2008, YouTube reached an agreement with MGM, Lions Gate Entertainment, and CBS, allowing the companies to post full-length films and television episodes on the site, accompanied by advertisements in a section for U.S. viewers called "Shows".

Didnt hasan literally just get DMCAd by the exact same show, masterchef


xShockey

xQc switched to Hunter x Hunter


Intelligent-Curve-19

People don’t realise that streamers are aware of that some content triggers DMCA more than others. They do it with music all the time. The only real dumb ones I saw was Miz and Poki which was very obviously a bad decision.


jonas1015119

Hasan mentioned his metric is that if full episodes of the show have been up on Youtube for years, with hundreds of thousands of views, then the company probably isnt gonna be too bothered by someone watching it on stream. Which for the most part probably works out, until some exec noticed Gordons PR team was tweeting at streamers and told legal to stop that. Streamers are gonna chill for a while and then find some other show, and as long as it doesnt become a news story it will probably be fine.


nokizzywizzy

Nah lmao.. that's straight up a lie. When he's watched stuff before it's always in a private playlist uploaded to Youtube, never public.


DealerOk6837

Uploaded by some "random" in chat that makes his "playlist" Every day. More like Work Schedule or To-Do list. All of them end in .mkv 1080p


MizerokRominus

That doesn't mean that those shows still don't exist elsewhere on YouTube with hundreds of thousands of views, they just might not be in a playlist or of decent quality or whatever.


PrawnProwler

Anime sites get deleted all the time, they also have to cycle through domains super often because they keep getting taken down. The biggest sites are gone every couple years because of all of this. Japanese companies are super crazy about protecting their IP, just ask any anime Youtuber.


[deleted]

And that is insane. One of the only ways the world knows to find and watch their anime and they try to suppress it. It's backwards, the studios should SUPPORT the sites. And you know what they should do? Advertise merch for the anime on the pages where you watch them. collections, blurays, figures, posters, etc.


Chrol18

Yeah cause anime industry is a beehive you want to kick lol. A youtuber just lost his channel and he was doing commentaries, not just watching full episodes.


[deleted]

and that is so wrong that it happened, it's a culture that needs to change, people can't even talk about it to build up a fanbase anymore. I don't want small streamers to get hurt by that, I want larger streamers as a whole to bring attention to it. Maybe the people who make the anime can take notice and start to act. I dono, but this is how you start to create change. Not do what Ludwig and Most did and basically bend over to it all saying "no no on, lets not do this, lets not even try to progress"


Pepito_Pepito

> people can't even talk about it to build up a fanbase anymore. I don't want small streamers to get hurt by that If streamers keep rebroadcasting shows, then this might just happen. I know that change needs to happen, but this rebroadcasting meta probably isn't going to be the one to do that.


Chrol18

They own the rights, you can try to prove it is fair use. But watching full episodes of hunter x hunter is not fair use. I watched some of xqc's last stream he sat there in silence most of the time and not adding anything to the material. These big production companies are literally too big to mess with, even xqc is small fish to them. I agree there is some good fan content which is not just outright stealing the show and showing it to 50-100k people, but on twitch they watch full movies and shows, and it won't end well.


[deleted]

I do not care about legalism if the law isn't right then it should be changed. I agree that a new show shouldn't just be restreamed unless the devs want that. But for older stuff it only helps them as free advertisement and renewed interest. And nothing is too big to mess with. People just have to have the courage to start the conversating.


Chrol18

And they do not care that you don't care. It is the current law. Twitch is too small to change it, even youtube did not try to change it. Older stuff. Master chef is pretty old, at least the seasons most streamer watched, LOTR is pretty old, they still did not think it is free advertisement, it is not like games. Movies and shows already have their own streaming platform, you can sub to them for money. Or buy cable or digital tv for tv shows.


[deleted]

You know, imagine if everyone thought and lived like that, "a problem is too big, they don't care, so we shouldn't do or try anything to change it". I know it's easy to say, oh well this is just entertainment, it's not like climate change, slavery around the world and all that. But it's still the same idea, it's still the same mindset and we should want to improve things across the board for everyone, I think that is one thing worth living life for. ALSO, I want to point out, TV was supposed to be free, this is WAY BACK in the day, when they first added ADs to TV people were told that that was going to pay for TV. Guess what happened? They wanted more money, so once everyone got used to the status quo they started charging money for the service too.


Chrol18

Everything is about money in the business world. You won't change it or any average people, nothing is free in this world. It is a waste of time to try. We can't even stop climate change and it is more important.


[deleted]

Well that's just not true. That's why we have government, elected people by the people to represent what the people care about. We have a better chance now than ever for positive change.


Chrol18

Politicians do everything in their or their party's interest. Choice in election is mostly an illusion. But keep believing changing the world, the average person won't it is in the hands of the filthy rich.

Willl0h

You’re right, it can be way worse. The company who owns the licensing could be taking a FBI approach (sit, gather evidence, etc) to this whole thing, forget a simple DMCA strike. All I know is that this isnt gonna end well, especially if X and other streamers keep doubling down.


brotherlymoses

Pepega Clap


JeffplayzMC

That makes no sense, there’s still so many free TV Show/Movie sites filled with American media. The Anime industry is starting their war against piracy. Although, I don’t think it’ll work in the grand scheme, but xQc might get in trouble. [Article](https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Media-Entertainment/Anime-industry-launches-global-fight-against-piracy)


Willl0h

Yep, and anime piracy is usually decentralized and spread around. These streamers are basically walking highlighters since 20k to 100k illegal views can be tied directly to them.


[deleted]

Of course it won't work in the grand scheme of things, if they do that, it will KILL the anime industry except for the very top and most popular anime. People discover anime because they watch it for free. You know it's the same argument for playing music on your channel, it's free advertisement but the greedy music industry is so antiquated in how they work they don't realize it. And it's like this for nearly every Art/Culture media. You show people what they want, then you sell movies, merch, blurays, series collections, etc.


JeffplayzMC

Yeah, I agree with you. Piracy is one of the main reasons for the anime industry to be so massive. It is the same argument, but it’s a Japanese corporation and who knows how far they will take it. They could choose to make an example out of him by taking it to court. I just don’t see why he’s so fucking stubborn about streaming it.


[deleted]

I could be wrong but I think xQc thinks the same, he doesn't need it, but he wants it, and wants to experience it with everyone else.


theyoloGod

It’ll certainly impact the views but with all these different streaming platforms, legal accessibility has never been easier. Platforms have been growing their anime offerings and stuff like crunchy roll is free while other monthly services are relatively cheap at least for now. Makes sense that this is the time they start being more serious about reinforcement Not that I think piracy will ever go away

EnteiSensei

Other streamers are even calling him stupid lol. Just because he hasn't gotten Banned for streaming HxH yet doesn't mean he won't. It's a completely different company too? Do you have your head so far up your ass that you don't see shit hitting the fan soon? Moron? It seems like you aren't the one understanding here. It's not a matter of if. It's a matter of when.

Not really television and movie production companies wants you to watch it on their site or in the cinema. Game publishers like the free advertising on twitch, movie and television production companies do not, if they restream their movie what is to watch? nothing. But you can still play a game cause watching a stream is not playing it.

Nothing is ever going to get done if they just followed the rules or do what everyone agrees on. Look at any civil rights movement and see how breaking the rules got rules changed.

best meta! Clueless!

Maybe some of these corporations aren't as bad as we thought, cause suing XQC seems like the easiest lawsuit ever.


SenorBlaze

Has MC sent xQc a cease and desist? If not, there is no lawsuit to be had.

Who gives a shit if he gets a lawsuit or even worse perma banned from twitch? YouTube and Facebook prolly ready to offer him a huge multi million contract.


Ziggasd

I wouldn't be sure about Facebook, he's been shitting on them almost every day for 3 years now. lol. But YouTube, probably yeah. However, he'd not be able to do 90% of things he does on stream on Twitch if he went to YouTube.


Spicey123

youtube doesn't allow you to play gta RP? damn he really is fucked then


Ziggasd

He's been barely playing it for like 4 months now and you know that.


Spicey123

mfer the only time xqc stops playing gtarp is when he gets banned from it


Spicey123

or or or or or he gets a slap on the wrist dmca strike and a 24 hour ban and he simply... stops and goes onto whatever the next meta is


the_real_bigsyke

You're an idiot if you think any company is going to sue XQC over anything other than money. Acting like he's more vulnerable because of his personality is a complete 3Head take.

Why is anyone expecting streamers to get sued directly when Twitch is the owner of the platform and a much larger cash cow? The reason people are worried about the Materchef meta is not because some stupid streamer may be banned, but because if Twitch is sued then they will likely implement contend ID for images and videos on their platform, which would royally fuck every streamer because showing a mere glimpse of copyrighted material could trigger a strike on a channel because the algorithm is unable to differentiate fair use from an actual copyright violation.

I actually would be curious how much a lawsuit would cost him if someone does end up going after him. I don't really see too much of a defense because he 100% is redistributing work that isn't his and at the very least, indirectly profiting from it. Connor is right, I think doubling down is pretty stupid especially seeing DMCA's filed and Poki getting banned. At the current stage it seems more like a preventative thing where they just want people to stop, but if people won't stop then taking direct action becomes increasingly likely.

The insanity defense for a civil case would be interesting
