DAMN IT, HBO!

January 19, 2009, 7:17PM

Today I ended my subscription to HBO in disgust over their actions to remove clips from YouTube of the inaugural concert claiming copyright ownership rights. HBO, do you want to be viewed as a member of our country's community or not?

I will not resubscribe, purchase DVDs, or spend my money on anything owned, sponsored or sold by HBO unless they agree to freely share this historic moment with the world.
