Currently, we use stickam.com to broadcast our live shows.  And while it is sufficient, I wish it offered more.  So I started to research alternatives.

One alternative I really like is ustream.com.  The interface is great, the broadcasting appears top-notch, and they even have an iPhone app so people can watch while in transit.  Sounds great, right?  I thought so, until I read their terms of use:

Ustream.tv does not claim ownership rights in your User Submissions. However, by uploading, streaming, submitting, emailing, posting, publishing or otherwise transmitting any User Submission to Ustream.tv or on the Site, you hereby grant Ustream.tv a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, perpetual and irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works based on, perform, display, publish, distribute, transmit, broadcast and otherwise exploit such User Submissions in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed, including without limitation on the Site and third party websites. You represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents and permissions to grant the foregoing licenses to Ustream.tv. Ustream.tv will own all right, title and interest in and to all derivative works and compilations of User Submissions that are created by Ustream.tv, including all worldwide intellectual property rights therein. You agree to execute and deliver such documents and provide all assistance reasonably requested by Ustream.tv to give to Ustream.tv the full benefit of the rights granted to Ustream.tv by you.

For content creators, this should scare you.  A lot.  Not sure why?  Let’s take a closer look at one particular passage in their terms of use (bold added by me for effect):

…you hereby grant Ustream.tv a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, perpetual and irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt…

This may not strike you as an area of concern immediately, but let’s take a closer look at exactly what Perpetual and Irrevocable mean.  According to Encarta, perpetual is “lasting forever” while irrevocable means it is “impossible to revoke, undo, or change.”

Wow.  So by using their service I grant them the right to use my content (pictures, audio, video, clips, etc.) forever in whatever way they want, and there is nothing I can do to change or stop it.  Even if I delete my account and all my content from their servers, they still retain the right to use my work .. forever!  No thank you ustream.  No thank you.

In contrast, stickam.com’s terms of services reads as follows (bold added by me for effect):

You or the owner of the Content retain ownership of all right, title, and interest in Content that you Post, display, perform, transmit, or otherwise distribute on Stickam. However, you grant AVC a license to use and distribute the Content you Post on Stickam until a commercially reasonable time after you have deleted the Content. More specifically, by Posting, downloading, displaying, performing, transmitting, or otherwise distributing Content on Stickam, you are granting AVC, its, affiliates, and their subsidiaries, assigns, employees, agents and licensees the worldwide, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferrable right to reproduce, display, distribute…

So with stickam, while I still grant them the right to use, redistribute, and edit my content to their liking, they do not retain this right forever.  Once I delete the content and/or my account, their right to use my work is also deleted.  This seems much more reasonable.

Some may ask why it even matters.  And to that I point you to two small facts.  The first, the internet show quarterlife had a brief (one episode brief) run on network television.  Had they signed the righs away to their video, it is unlikely NBC would have even taken a chance on airing the show.

Second, Jerry Seinfeld was listed as the top earning comic in 2008, with a whopping $85M, mostly due to syndication deals for the Seinfeld television show.  A show which filmed its last episode more than ten years ago.  Think about that for a minute.  Again, probably not something he could have accomplished had he granted someone a perpetual and irrevocable right to use the content royalty-free.

Therefore, it looks like we will continue to broadcast Rainy City Radio via stickam.  While I like ustream and its iPhone sexiness, I just cannot bring myself to grant them perpetual and irrevocable rights.

To my fellow content creators, I strongly suggest you read the terms of service for whatever system you use to distribute and/or host your content.  You may be giving away more than you realize.

According to the New York Post, Jefferson was scheduled to marry former New Jersey Nets dancer Kesha Ni’Cole Nichols. Alas, a few days before the big day, Jefferson called off the ceremony and broke up with his fiancée.  Unfortunately, nobody told a significant number of guests.

Ouch!  So, when is the right time to break off the engagement?

So, in my never ending search for useless information, I come across this article today. Basically, last week, we talked briefly about twitter and how much money they have and what they are worth. Currently, funding is at $55 million (Fonzo, I don’t think Twitter is broke). Not only that, but according to this article, they are looking to be bought for as much as $700 million (good call on that one Fonzo). So while they may not be making any “ad”vertising money right now. They are mos def not broke by any means.

A couple appeared on an episode of the TV show titled “Shoplifting Confessions” Nov. 19, saying they were “professional shoplifters” who have amassed nearly $1 million in stolen goods, according to the show’s Web site. They were identified as Laura and a man who used the names Matthew and Allen.

And of course the next step is …

A spokesman for the San Diego Regional Fraud Task Force, which conducted the raid on the house on the 1400 block of Leslie Court on Thursday, wouldn’t disclose the reason for the raid or if it was connected to the TV show.

Really?  They didnt’ see that coming?  Honestly, how can people be smart enough to steal millions of dollars worth of goods but too dumb to hire a lawyer and learn about statute of limitations?

“You’ve got sports fishermen, and you’ve got guys out there fishing to eat. You’ve got guys that are fishing to keep the fish, and you’ve got guys that are fishing to catch them, unhook them and throw them back,” Harvey says. “You’ve got to determine along the way which one of the fish you’re going to be.”

What do you think?

This is a video of a 16-year-old girl being attacked, for lack of better words by (Seattle) King County Sheriff’s Deputy Paul Schene, after Malika Calhoun (the 16-year-old) kicks off her shoe in Schene’s direction. Now when you watch the video, you can say, yea she might of been out of line for kicking a shoe, but damn! To take the hit she took and then be pulled up by her hair for kicking a shoe, not cool, not cool. But I’ll let you all be the judge… check the video and news link…..

Can music really make you smarter or dumber? According this chart it does … oh, and look where our friend Lil’ Wayne is located… lol:

While I doubt that listening to the music makes you more or less stupid, understanding it probably does. I think few would argue that if you’re able to read, write, and compose the complicated compositions of Beethoven you probably have a higher IQ than writing the ramblings of Lil’ Wayne. I’m just sayin’ . . . .

So what say you? Do you agree or disagree?

As stated in the Xbox LIVE Terms of Use, a member may not create a gamertag or use text in other profile fields that include comments that look, sound like, stand for, hint at, abbreviate, or insinuate content of a potentially sexual nature,

Sounds like a good policy to me.  Now if only they could do something about the millions of idiot kids who R 5up3r 733t n t41k l1k3 th15.

What say you, Microsoft justified for banning the lesbian?

Also, does anyone else think she looks like a bad Angelina Jolie?

But this, ohh no not this, here people are coming up with the bottom 5, or 10. Check it out, do you agree? Disagree? Opinions? Check the link…

So what’s going on this week…. Well so far it’s been quite the week in the beef world. Last week we showcased the Beef between Joe Buddens and Saigon.

This week, 50 Cents took his Beef with Rick Ross to all new heights, calling on his baby mom to put Ross on blast. WOW! Of couse, after 50′s diss record, and this, Ross looked like he was down for the count, until he got with Missinfo.tv and let everyone know where is at with this all. WOW!

Other news…. Congrats to Erykah Badu on the birth of her new born child (with Jay Electronica). The name of the child… MARS MERKABA…. The craziest thing about the birth is that, both Fatbellybella and Jay twittered (www.twitter.com) the event while it was happening. Giving fans an inside look on a very personal event in their lives. WOW!

Make sure you tune in to RCR this Friday to hear us talk about this as well as other events over this week. Peace!
