XD haha Detroit4 will be more fun if this sample is included in the pack!

but is this public domain?

i thought that was agentflit sing'n skyhigh XD well not really but i could be from TV

Did I over react?!?!?

[21:43] puke7> how is it?
[21:44] Agentflit> that sample has an expired copyright!
[21:44] Agentflit> it was part of a theme song to a really old anime that was only dubbed for 4 shows, and really crappily at that
[21:45] Agentflit> and since it was before 1978 it wouldve had to been renewed 28 years later
[21:45] Agentflit> but it was just some bum company that was probably not around by then
[21:46] Agentflit> haha in case you were wondering :)
[21:50] puke7> well shit
[21:50] Agentflit> why do they need to be public domain anyway
[21:51] puke7> well the opposite question of that is WHY WOULD ANYONE MAKE A SAMPLE THEMSELVES TO SHARE WITH OUTHERS?
[21:51] Agentflit> uh
[21:51] Agentflit> what?
[21:52] Agentflit> you've lost me :D
[21:52] puke7> sry -- on phone
[21:52] puke7> hold on..
[21:56] puke7> ok
[21:56] puke7> they don't need to be public domain
[21:56] puke7> they need to be redistributable though
[21:57] puke7> public domain is a few steps past that
[21:57] Agentflit> well the rules says public domain doesn't it?
[21:57] puke7> yeah
[21:57] puke7> but you don't know if it's 100% public domain do you?
[21:58] Agentflit> well that's why I was wondering why it mattered
[21:58] puke7> this is one of those things i find myself repeating over and over again
[22:00] puke7> and ppl are just like "yeah but like it doesn;t matter COZ IT'S JUST A STUPID BITCH WEBSITE AND YER NOT REALLY GETTING OUR TRACKS OUT IN THE WORLD SO WE COULD JUST BITE THIS AND THAT COZ IT WOULDN'T REALLY MATTER COZ THIS PERSON OR THESE PEOPLE WHO PRODUCED OUR OWNED THIS AT ONE TIME CAN'T EVEN REMEBER WHAT THEY DID OR WHATEVER
[22:00] Agentflit> uh
[22:00] puke7> when what i'd like to see is people make shit themselves and share it
[22:00] puke7> sry -- you are getting thte brunt of many frustrating conversations i have had over the years.... :P
[22:01] Agentflit> well
[22:01] Agentflit> what I was thinking about was that even if it was copyright it shouldn't matter because of fair use
[22:01] Agentflit> you're not making a profit, right?
[22:02] puke7> well, no, but wouldn't it be amazing if I could break even for once?
[22:02] Agentflit> in this case it's just something that was abandoned and was made before copyright law was extended to be lifetime of author + 75 years or whatever
[22:03] puke7> besides if we ever get a little bit more legit (i.e. start storing/sharing on the internet archive) i'd like to have peace of mind that no one will ask me to take it down someday)
[22:03] Agentflit> :)
[22:03] Agentflit> I can understand that
[22:04] puke7> ok -- new rule -- just like NO COVERS -- NO SAMPLING
[22:04] puke7> CRAPTANK ASSFACE SEYZ THIS:: ALL SOUNDS ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT SAMPLED FROM OTHER PEOPLES CRAP YOU CRAPTANK TARDO CAKES!!
[22:05] Agentflit> new rule: no C notes
[22:05] Agentflit> C is copyright me
[22:05] Agentflit> in fact the whole key of c

I apologize for having upset you b, I meant no harm.

It's not just some random sample though, it's a bastion of my youth. It comes from an old vhs tape I recently rediscovered in the closet which contained a collection of previews for mostly crappy cartoons. But when I was younger, it didn't matter how crappy they were, they were all AWESOME!
