The missed post from JaWoodle

[theFlu]

If Mick Jagger sent me the next unreleased Rolling Stones album, I would not be allowed to publish it. It wouldn't be mine because they made a mistake.

That case still has no correlation to this one, I ain't about to retype my rebuttal.

he was obliged to unpublish it.

No.

And then in my opinion TFP should cover any losses he might have incurred up to that point, and if not, a judge would likely rule that way regardless.

Cool; but also just fanfic again.

Are you for real???
Any professional you hire brings his tools. it might not be specified in detail but for sure the use of his tools is included in the hourly rate. Why do we even have this discussion, are you just troling?

You're the one who brought it up. And Woodle wasn't hired. They didn't contract him to make the videos. They kindly allowed him into their creator program where he was given access to build earlier than the public to make content. Equipment costs and all that are on him, which is why he should probably take his job more serious and not bite the hand that feeds him.

There is no cost involved in unpublishing a video.

And don't tell me he should be compensated for the loss of future revenues from a video containing someone else's proprietary data

Time to edit videos is a cost. The labor to edit is a cost. Equipment is a cost. Electricity is a cost. Editing software is a cost. Rendering videos costs the use of the machine for awhile. Lost opportunity doing anything else with his time is a cost.

While his videos remain unpublished, his competitors see views. His audience goes elsewhere. His videos become irrelevant if left unpublished for so long. Videos don't magically edit themselves. And yes, they were asking him to sacrifice his revenue, time, and labor to fix their mistake.

Did they have an agreement to cover this kind of situation? Anything in writing that would describe what either side is responsible for? This is why DETAILED contracts are important.

Guess it'll all come out in court.

Like i said elsewhere, he plays the game for 1 hour a day (most difficult job in the world!) and edits for another. And the videos are barely edited at all. It would be a small cost to edit or remake those videos. You would think his relations with TFP are worth more than a couple of bucks he would make from those videos, especially since the majority of viewers already seen it.

And you're just reaching with those costs, as if he got software specifically for this video. "Electricity costs" go send him a 2$ donation if you're so worried about this bills

What's fair? Asking Jawoodle to eat the cost financially for their mistake?

Well, TFP mistakenly published the wrong version, true...
but why was JaWoodle the ONLY streamer who made the mistake of showing unauthorized content?

Was he setup by TFP to fail, like some say?
What if others published the same content on their videos?
Would TFP have asked also to them to remove that content?

We'll never know, because apparently JaWoodle was the only one to make this mistake.

Reasonable guess, time zones. As an aussie, he was highly likely to be the first to download and start playing .. and once you're playing, steam won't update your game from underneath you.
