know much on the legal stuff—perhaps look into fanfiction? It's getting big enough that Joe Public is somewhat aware
of it—Time Magazine, for example, has done a few articles about it and even the occasional recommendation—
Tofu~ <3 lol Fanfiction being recommended on Time magazine?! I need to see this. ovo Do you have
any links? I had no idea about this. xDD
Also, lol I guess they didn't like the idea of Muse fans selling and profiting from a Muse DVD - though, given that it's
fanmade... lol. Studios and mangaka in Japan seem to be generally happy for the popularity boost/publicity via fanbooks
and fanvideos while those in the West aren't so pleased.. With a few exceptions here and there, like J K Rowling being
all "I read fanfiction, it's so fun to see what the fans say. lol fan translations? Impressive." Different
policies, I guess.
P.S. This wiki article
amuses me somewhat...
