Greg Hibbard Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 somebody wanna copy and paste? It's probably about Veeck, Disco Demolition Night and stuff like that. http://espn.go.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Uh I wouldn't cut and paste that. Copying copyrighted paid material can get Soxtalk sued. If someone wants to summerize it, that would be cool. Otherwise it will probably just get deleted anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Can't copy and paste it. It is like a flash document where you turn pages and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UofIChiSox Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I'm an insider, and it's just an electronic version of ESPN the Magazine, it's the exact same thing as you'd see if you bought the mag on a newstand, it's just in electronic form.

I see entire articles from various sources posted all over the place. What's the difference in those and this instance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free material is just that, free material. When you are taking something you have to pay for, the site can be held resposible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UofIChiSox Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 QUOTE(knightni @ Aug 8, 2005 -> 04:47 PM) Insider is a paid service. The others are not. But at the same time, the free sites are free because they get enough advertising revenue from the hits they receive, when we copy and past free stuff, it leads to less hits, which could lead to less advertising revenue, which could lead to no more free stuff. I think the best policy is to copy and paste highlights and provide links to full articles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the little line I see at the bottom of every Tribune article? Copyright © 2005, The Chicago Tribune Doesn't that me you aren't supposed to copy the entire thing?

knightni Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 (edited) Their content should be okay to use. As long as there is a link to it, I don't see what is wrong with copying and pasting it. The Chicago Tribune's website is hardly a pay site. Edited August 8, 2005 by knightni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was the whole point of copyrighted material. Whether it's free or not. Wasn't that what the whole Napster lawsuit was about? Just don't want to see the site get into legal trouble...

These articles are given away free on the Tribune's website. ESPN is not giving away their Insider articles for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palehosefan Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Not that I'm supporting this but... you can copy and past Flash by using the print screen button and making an image out of it. But copying anyone's paid material can get Soxtalk in big trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
