Let me stop you right there. If I describe where something that is copyrighted is and you go view this copyrighted material, I fail to see how that's infringement. Sure, hotlinking is rude and if you're using it inline with a page, then it can be highly disingenuious as to the source, but you're still not republishing.
If Coca-Cola reprints your copyrighted material, then they've created a copy, and not according to their rights, so it's infringement. If they simply point back to your site for the image, then it's not. Very simple.
For the time being; however, Hulu is doing far more good than harm by having a model that basically mirrors OTA broadcast. If they decide to narrowband it and make people pay, they'll flock back to the torrent sites in no time.
I watch a lot of my shows on Netflix, and I don't mind paying because I don't have to watch commercials, and I can pause/rewind/fast forward as I see fit.

He was, but somehow, the rest of the guys in the video had to do the same think as Mikey without his magic.
Re: Re: Simple (as Jebrew)
Or you can just shorten it to:
"You must pay us"

Good times for all

Re: (as Jebrew)
I believe they have that model. It's called cable.
