Are Anime Music Videos Fair Use?
Nowhere is this true than the hobby I have had since high school of creating "anime music videos" or AMVs (music videos setting footage from anime shows and video games to popular songs) and posting them on websites such as YouTube and animemusicvideos.org And it's not just me; there are tens of thousands of these videos posted online and they have taken on a life of their own as an art form in their own right, with a whole subculture of AMV editors with contests, awards, and websites dedicated to them.
