Q: The deal seems great if you want those premium Videos.
My issue is I think all sumolings want to create marketing video's and your licensing arrangements are opaque. You say simple royalty free licensing. However you then in the license mention using 'model released' and 'property released' stock. Then in search there is no option to filter or identify video's in this way. You have 'editorial and 'commercial'. Almost all the content seems to be editorial only? Which mean we cannot use them in commercial, marketing or promotional videos for distribution or on screens as backdrops to events?
Your license specifically states we cannot use any video for marketing with a building in it if it is not marked 'property released'. However no court has ever found copyright exists in a picture of a property, less one taken from a public space. However your license could give grounds for you to pursue us for improper usage of your videos'. Just trying to clarify if there is any value in this deal as everyone is talking about the vids and credits. I think the deal is fine, if you just want hd vids then take the 150 offer onsite..
But if you want premium then the deal is great. The issue for me is around usage.. it is the exact opposite of what is promised about it being simple as far as i can tell.
