Let's start by saying I am not a lawyer, so the following is my understanding of the Fair Use doctrine.
There are four criterias one has to see to determine whether something is fair use:
-
The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes
The use in this case is non commercial, and the purpose is different from the one the series does, as the primary function is to share specific scenes and not to entertain.
-
The nature of the copyright work
Do we know whether BoJack Horseman is not based on a true story? Yeah, this problably doesn't work.
-
The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole
The number of frames used for each episode is around 700 hundreds while the whole episode is over 30.000 frames. However it does contain the full transcription, although not the audio. Does it contain the "heart" of the work? More like a ventricle.
-
The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work
No one will stop watching BoJack Horseman because of this site. If anything people are more likely to watch it as this encourages sharing in social media, sparking interest on new audiences.
My personal assessment is that it is fair use. However if you own the copyright and you want me to take it down, I will do it, just send me an email to [email protected]. However before you do that, Is it possible maybe when the other guys tried to copyright the name BoJack Horseman, they wrote down something else by mistake, so "BoJack Horseman" is still up for grabs?
Sure thing! You can provide your own videos with subtitles and get your still images and search index using datamaker. You will then have to upload those into a static web server.
