NZ Pop History: Destiny in Motion
(crossposted from CreativeFreedom.org.nz)
Andrew Dubber comments on a New Zealand band from the 80s who broke up due to irreconcilable differences and may now be trying to rewrite history by issuing copyright infringement notices. “n order to build on the story of being a classic kiwi pop band, [the band, Satellite Spies] are eradicating all evidence that actually, Mark ran the original Satellite Spies, and variations on it for some years after Deane quit. [...] Deane may be trying to rewrite history, but the ‘inconvenience’ of media sharing sites makes it all very difficult. Deleting reference to it on sites like YouTube in order to tell a different version of events is, I would hope, an ultimately fruitless endeavour – even if they remove clips on the merest breath of legal murmurings.”
