You Tube, Uploaders Make Us Very Rich


You Tube, Uploaders Make Us Very Rich

I never thought I could ever see the old film The cranes are flying again. I’ve sought DVD.s, VCD’s in the malls. I now have watched it in You Tube.

Skip the add.

I’m so grateful to You Tube, the uploaders, having uploaded this beautiful film and so many other beautiful, invaluable things. And I mused, is it so wrong, a sin were someone transgessing the copy right of a beautiful old piece of art in order to share it with the world, for everyone to ever enjoy, rather than have it for ever lost?

We haven’t to go abroad, visit the concert halls, the Louvre museum, see films in the theatre, visit the seven wonders of the world, ... by just visiting  and enjoying them in You Tube. What a lot. Amazing. As though it were ours.

You Tube, the uploaders make us very rich.
