"Only a broadcaster/network that has purchased rights from the NCAA may air a live description of any competition."



The Gator Forum broadcast TWO live feeds to a Gator game...the LSU and UK game were both shown on the forum..and I have them cached Has the forum purchased rights from the NCAA to show live games? I dont think so! Did the forum BREAK copyright law? YES!

Interesting. We shall have to see exactly what they were doing and if in fact they were breaking a law. It would be very stupid of them to break a law like that. They should know better.

Click the link...you will see the post for the feed to the game. They also let this go on for the LSU game.

Dont you think rebroadcasting an NCAA copyright game is against the law?..It is!

CBS etc paid the NCAA to broadcast the game GatorSports.com didnt!

I will do everything I can to see that they do!

Why? What's it to you?? JW. Is it because the Gators beat Tennessee by almost 40 points or something?? :Banana:

 

[volsrock69]

Nope the game has nothing to do with it. Gators stomped our butts!

Its because they broke the law.

And they banned me after 3900 posts and wouldnt tell me what rule I broke. I didnt break any of their rules...

Since they cant be man enough to say what rule I broke to be banned after over 3900 posts. And they think they are ABOVE the law.

 

[GatorGuy8]

Do you post over there?

 

[volsrock69]

I did over 3900 posts..and they banned me when I BROKE NO RULES and they wont tell me what rule I broke to be banned!

Those above were the last post I made...again no rules were broke!

 

[volsrock69]

They also break the law...and when Im done on the CBS NCAA etc boards everyone will know.

But it was a fan that did it, right? He may not of known it was right or wrong to do it. I just hope they don't take Gator Sports Message boards down. For the most part it's a good place. But if it happens, it would mean more users for Gator Envy so I won't complain too much.

 

[Mr2Bits]

I'm not sure if Gator Sports Forum broke the law, or if the guy who posted the live link is? I'm not keen on NCAA laws.

But if it brings more people to Gator Envy... then by all means, spread the word.

 

[volsrock69]

Not so much the NCAA laws but copyright laws.

It's whomever hosts the video that is in trouble. Take www.tv-links.co.uk for example... They are a hugely known site but can't get in trouble as they don't host the video.

What's funny to me is you wouldn't have said a word about this feed had they not banned you.

 

[volsrock69]

Hmmmm...that www.tv-links.co.uk site is shut down...so much for not getting in trouble.


The first closure of a major UK-based pirate site was also accompanied by raids and an arrest, the anti-piracy group Federation Against Copyright Theft (Fact) said today.

A 26-year-old man from Cheltenham was arrested on Thursday in connection with offences relating to the facilitation of copyright infringement on the internet, Fact said.

The arrest and the closure of the site - www.tv-links.co.uk - came during an operation by officers from Gloucestershire County Council trading standards in conjunction with investigators from Fact and Gloucestershire Police.

Fact claims that tv-links.co.uk was providing links to illegal film content that had been camcorder recorded from cinemas and then uploaded to the internet. The site also provided links to TV shows that were being illegally distributed.

Just as GatorSports.com did!

 

[FanSmack]

Damn, that sucks!

But I still think you would have never said anything had they not banned you!

 

[volsrock69]

Yes I would have...because Libs are so high and mighty on the Rule of Law in the Political Forum. But yet they break it all the time.

 

[GatorGuy8]

Agreed. He is mad he got banned so now he wants to bring down the board.

 

[volsrock69]

Well guess what they took the topic down. But they cant hide it. LOL
