"Busy Buses" (as shown daily on Living TV) is stolen work - the series was "stolen" from a friend of mine who is a childrens author & he cannot afford legal action against these people

So far we have managed to get Nurseries to *BAN* it & hopefully Amazon are looking into copyright breach

If you think this kind of thing is "unacceptable" (i.e. Big media making money from other peoples hard work) - please have a look at the website & if you so desire please sign the petition on the website

Our aim is to close this Copyright "loophole" which allows big media to literally "steal" from the poor who deserve at least some recognition for their hard work

Sorry, but no-one here cares about you silly little kids show - whether your idea was ripped off or not, spam is not appreciated on this forum.

Many forumers dont like demands from others, and everyone hates posters that type in capital letters! It would have been more subtle not to shout and to explain the situation, and ask politely for forumers to join the petition rather than shouting and demanding!

kids have been exploited by hundreds of companies for tens of years

what happened here is not even exploitation of kids - the kids can't even comprehend the ideas and processes behind the shows they see on TV - it doesn't affect them.

it's a small dispute between this man and whichever tv company he's deciding to target today, and to be honest no-one else really gives a ****. if he has a battle to fight he can fight it on his own.

You know, the attitude you have isn't gonna win you and your friend any support. Your friend isnt alone anyway, lots of ideas have been ripped off, but changed enough so that in the eyes of the law the production companies can get away with it, a sad but true fact.
