Abstract
'[W]hen a population bombarded with electronic media meets the hardware that encourages them to capture it', free appropriation and remixes of copyrighted materials are inevitable. This articles examines the tensions between remix videos, US copyright law and YouTube through the prism of fair use and calls for a broader implementation of the doctrine that enables free and creative media practice as essential to democratic civil society.
