The Extent of Copyright Law

I sometimes watch interesting video clips in the Youtube site. The site has enormous videos and gives me lots of sources I want to see. The videos are given to us for fun as free stuffs. I think the function of media is good to us, and thus should be promoted by making more videos. However, there are some problems of copyright. When I read the Free Culture, I got one fact. We usually upload the video clips as it is or modified and remixed one, which are regulated in the same ways by the law. However, the regulation of the former and the latter should be separated according to the book. The reason is that the using of original sources as it is violates creator’s property, but remixed and modified ones can promote the creativity and the industries. I agree with his opinion. As I mentioned above, In the Youtube, there are a host of interesting video clips which has great creativity. I believe that the kind of modified creations should be protected by the law to boost our creativities and the industries.
