For those of you who don't follow me on Twitter, I announced yesterday that Universal Music Group *might* (although it hasn't been confirmed) be removing the second P&R trailer from YouTube for unsolicited use of the song "Everyday Is Exactly The Same", by Nine Inch Nails. So, you may want to watch / download it here while you can.

I had tried getting in contact with YouTube a while back, asking if it was possible to replace the current P&R trailers, as I wanted to upload alternative versions, omitting any reference to Max Payne. Alas, I never received a reply. Currently, the only thing you seem to be able to do is delete the offending video and upload a new one, resulting in the loss of comments, viewing statistics, etc... And this really isn't acceptable.

Anyway, I don't want anyone to launch a tirade against UMG - It was my fault for using copyrighted material that didn't belong to me in the first place, and my fault if they do indeed take the trailer down. You may ask yourself "How do other people get away with using stuff that doesn't belong to them?", and this is because it is up to the owner of the material being used as to *who* can use it, *where* it can be used, and *how* it can be used, etc. Sometimes you get lucky, and sometimes you don't. But at the end of the day, you live, learn, and move on.

In other news... If any of you are wondering what the hell is going on with P&R, it IS still going to be finished, I just can't tell you when. The current hurdle is raising enough cash to get the footage we shot back in '06 transferred to hard-drive, so that I can be in total control of the project, as opposed to shelling out even more money to get someone else to do what needs to be done. I will be sure to let you guys know when this happens.

Out.
