This opinion site relates well to my topic; what constitutes music sampling. Musicians are trying to get money from other musicians for copyright infringement... but sometimes it is only two notes that they say were copied.

This website could also be helpful to several people while working on their projects. It discusses copyright laws, multimedia laws, website rules, etc.

Blog magazine is a website that blogs about magazines and what is the headlines for that magazine each month.

This site allows anyone to input two YouTube video URLs and then "create" a mash-up with them.

This might be interesting to those of you who are doing research projects on music copyright laws/ parodys, etc. I suggest watching Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" music video before watching this if you haven't already, otherwise, it's not as funny.

I had actually never watched the full video of "Bad Romance" and I loved it and the remake. I thought it was really creative... thanks for posting!
