Again, no one is going to sue you for using consumer grade products in commercial settings. If the premium price was due to a commercial license, they would.
They're priced higher because the target consumer is prepared to pay more for the increased performance, even if the price isn't to scale.
An artist adding a commercial fee is charging premium prices for a standard product.

Hardware is honestly different an a strawman argument comparison. Want to make a better one? Software, most software have a commercial fee attached to them if you want to use them commercially at all. If it isn't some royalty or something it's requiring to buy a licence to use it commercially.

Some of you seem to argue that artists should charge more for commercial shit, some say they shouldn't, some seem to think there should be some kind of regular royalties payment, some guy even seemed to think they should do it for free...? Just fucking tell the artist you want to own the artwork, and to factor that into the price if applicable. They can't tell you shit after it'd completed that way, you own it, just tell them to shove it up their ass if they get uppity.

Everyone in this thread needs to look up Alex Mauer and understand what that tranny did wrong. When you commission art you are buying the copyright for that art 99% of the time. An artist doesn't get to demand royalties after the person who bought their art ends up making a lot of money if that was never part of the original commission.

I can't say for sure but I genuinely think the person who made her veah video did it to her for free even if it was "commissioned" and even if she did pay he probably didn't ask for anything that much.

In the world of artists if you become popular with their art they "rightfully" want a part of the cake regardless if you've already paid them properly before. Because it's "their art" so you "wouldn't be there without them".
Don't ask me why artists think that way, after 10 years of interacting with them I've given up on trying to understand. Your best bet is to always have some written contract or something so you don't get fucked over by them if you manage to make more money than they thought.

Mizuryu Kei was a very special kind of a complete and absolute mess.
>Mizuryu Kei got a gig to make a Hololive manga with Marine in it, and he's a HUGE fan of her
>Even Marine is a big fan of his works
>Life is good, everything is going great
>Suddenly, he started tweeting things like "Are you fucking kidding me?" and "Don't mess with me"
>Decided to delete every single Hololive-related artwork and doujins he ever made (which was a lot), that came out of absolutely nowhere and it surprised everyone
>No one knows what happened exactly, there's no official tweets, confirmation or announcement from either him or Cover, the most common rrats are :
> - Cover asked him to stop making R18 Hololive content since he's now an official artist
> - He asked to meet or talk to Marine, which Cover refused
> - What >>11869057 said
>At the time, the whole Taiwan incident was still going on in full force, his "manager" on Bilibili made a livestream on the Mizuryu Kei channel, and talked about how much he got fucked over by Cover and how they shouldn't be trusted by anyone you can't own a Bilibili account or even do business at all in China if you're not chinese yourself, which is why this dude is here
>He realized that things were going WAAAAAY too far, so he deleted his angry tweets, asked everyone to not harass the girls and made a post on Bilibili saying that what his manager said in that stream aren't his opinions
>But too late, Chinks started using him as a symbol against Hololive, the girls started getting harassed even harder, and at some point, even Marine was getting harassed as well
>Nips were absolutely pissed off, they dug up pic related from one of his old works and used it to mess with the Chinks.
>Chinks realized that this image was actually real, they declared him a Nanking denier and instantly threw him away
In only few hours, the dude went from being angry at Cover and making a few pissed off tweets to being a symbol against Hololive, and finally ended up being both a pariah and a Nanking denier.
He got heat from both sides, so he just privated his Twitter account for a few months and completely disappeared from the Internet, not even a tweet or a single like, until very recently.

There are vtubers in fucking third-world muslim-majority indonesia, there's no artist that doesn't know about vtubing even in third-world countries. Also, they still can fucking DMCA you if you don't put on contract that you want the commercial rights to the model and good luck counter-suing them overseas.

You don't fully own the right to that piece of artwork since the rights to the character belong to Cover - in other words, you should be glad that they understand there's a mutual benefit here and didn't decided to take it down and sue you for copyright infringement.

Why do you even need a ground reasoning for whether or not an Artist wants to charge a "commercial fee"? Unironically just let the market decide.

Anon just because you can't read terms of service doesn't mean they don't exist. You're very confused about how the world works.

Yes anon, you can buy some broccoli and cook it and sell it because that's part of the contract you made, you give them money, they give you the product with no strings attached.
You could maybe buy a game, most likely you're not and instead you're buying a license to it, and maybe you can stream it for profit if the contract you made with the game seller doesn't prohibit it.
If you commission a piece of art, you're buying a license to use the art, under the license's terms. Copyright (read: ownership) remains with the artist unless they also sell it to you.

Stop falling for the famous artist meme. Their clout isn't going to rub off on you and they have hundreds of fan willing to pay anything for their work.
Commission for results not for artist clout. There are plenty of obscure good artists that don't run with the same Twitter-artist crowd, plenty of them are new.

Why is he excluding every artist that doesn't charge commercial fees? The 2view is just saying that if you charge one, they're not going to commission from you. If I want a model I can use for profit, and you charge more in total than another artist, I'm less likely to use you. Simple as.

Also ridiculous that he claims that the nature of vtubing produces reputational fame as if that always translates into any monetary gain, when they're making the point that it doesn't in the same paragraph. Ask any one of these numbnuts whether or not they should pay a fee to Mihoyo for drawing Genshin art and watch the hamster wheels roll as they try to reconcile their point with "companies want the free exposure and fanart so it's okay".

Just say stealing if that's what you mean, because that's what you're advocating. The person in OP's post isn't saying "I don't like your prices/conditions, I'll find someone else's prices/conditions that I like", they're saying "I don't like your prices/conditions, I won't honor them and I'll take it anyways."

You're keep saying some nonsensical thing about attracting commercial clients, but that makes absolutely no sense in this context because that's exactly what they did, they attracted a commercial client, but the client didn't want to fully pay so they stole it. Is your strategy to say random things until enough are correct that people will think you're right despite them not adding up to any cohesive?

I don't think that's what OP's post is saying. They're saying that in exchange for exposure, they don't expect to pay a commercial fee. Misfounded expectations maybe, but I'm not sure where the guy up the thread got that they bought a personal license, and then decided to use it commercially anyways. That just sounds like what the quote retweet is saying.

I didn't want to be too verbose so I simplified it, maybe too much. The deepest nested person isn't saying they stole it, they're saying they think they should be able to pay with exposure instead, and they avoid artists that don't reflect that. However the least nested person isn't specifically talking about that person, but making a tangential general point that even if you don't agree with the terms, if you're using a model commercially, you still need to pay what the artist charges for that, i.e., theft is not ok just because you don't like the artist's payment model. That general premise is what was being discussed.

That is only true if it's a trademark, anyone can make fanart of characters and own them if not. Getting a character trademarked requires an expensive process proving that the character is unique and also represents the brand.
If we were talking about a flagship holo after Cover has successfully applied the character for trademark, then what you said would be true. I doubt they've trademarked any of their characters, though.

The is no such thing as a commercial use fee for software.
What they have is a discount for private use.
Making another copy of the software takes literally zero effort, so why not give a discount to people who don't plan to make money with it?
It also helps with spreading the software among those who may be needing this kind of software professionally in the future.
Giving a discount for private use is just a tool to sell more software at the normal price.

I'm not sure how both of you missed the point of the question. There's no "getting ripped off", they can charge whatever they want for their art.

Overall, personal and commercial use exist to protect the artists. If you plan to use the product for commercial use, then you will have to purchase the commercial rights to the product from the artist (aka commercial fees) on top of the original personal use price. If you don't, then they have the legal rights to sue you.

This is closer to the truth than you realize. Remington is currently being sued for selling the rifle used in a mass shooting almost a decade ago. If they had set the price of that gun high enough to deter the shooter from buying it, they wouldn't be litigating hundreds of millions in damages. There is a reputational risk that an artist takes when contracting with commercial clients that warrants a higher fee to discourage "bad actors" from associating the art with the artist. Imagine drawing a bunch of furry porn for personal commissions, getting a more mainstream art job, and then having furries sell a book of furry porn by "mainstream artist" that damages your ability to make anything but more furry porn.
But your example has no bearing on the topic because art has never been part of a traditional consumer market. The fact is that no one commissions "an art" the way you buy a hammer or a rifle. If in the process of negotiating a contract to commission stream assets you lie about their intended commercial use, you fucked up and may have to pay many times more to defend yourself in the legal system than you would have just paying the artist for commercial use.

This is ridiculous. Do you think companies should charge artists the same reputational risk if the artist goes nuts? Or from an example earlier in the thread, do you think it would be sensible for companies to charge a reputational fee if an artist wants to draw derivative works to post on twitter just in case they draw x character in a negative light?

>Imagine drawing a bunch of furry porn for personal commissions, getting a more mainstream art job, and then having furries sell a book of furry porn by "mainstream artist" that damages your ability to make anything but more furry porn.
Then you clearly state that all reproductive rights of your drawing are yours when you do the commission and take the toss whenever someone decides not to commission you because of it.

>If in the process of negotiating a contract to commission stream assets you lie about their intended commercial use, you fucked up and may have to pay many times more to defend yourself in the legal system than you would have just paying the artist for commercial use.
His, probably, intended point is making up fees post hoc that aren't covered under an original contract. While a lot of commissioned art has a formal contract these days, many still don't. When you buy a hammer, there's no clause stating that if you do x you have to pay an extra fee. He's saying that when you buy x, all associated copyright with that product should be yours.

>>11891663
Because most of the time the people splitting their commercial/non-commercial prices didn't start out as professional artists. Many artists don't draw a distinction between the two and just don't do personal commissions at all. Others don't have enough commercial work and/or want to work for more money so they lower their prices in a way that non-businesses can afford it. Then the rest are almost exclusively non-commercial, but realize that a business is simply willing to pay that much more, so if one contacts you, why not take the money?

, but the inciting incident was being charged more upfront for commercial use of a commissioned asset.
Most of the churn in this thread is failing to grasp that, instead assuming that this was an artist trying to collect after the fact or that "fees" means some kind of royalty on earnings generated by commercial use.

Vtweeters be tweeting. Artists want to defend their pricing structure on either side, 2views want to whine about how all the money they spend should make them 10views, no one wants to end up on the wrong side of fanartists. It obviously spun out of hand, the OP just wanted to vent about being unable to pay for shit.

>It's interesting to see people being offended by the idea of other people offering their work at different rates
There are tons of artists who complain that other artists are offering their work for too little and dragging all the prices down. Even more people who complain whenever requesters try to bargain down prices. I don't understand how someone can work by market principles when working with businesses, but suddenly disregard those same principles for a "living wage" when not. Either way, the market will take care of all the ones who offer suboptimal prices.

It's usually first worlders complaining about 3rd worlders undercutting them, which I don't care about, it's a loud minority that is usually inferior to what 3rd worlders can offer in quality as well.
This case is I assume first worlder crying that an artist asked them extra in advance for work they intend to make money off. And they for some reason expected "personal use only" discount for it.

Your example of "bad artist" is literally the same person as the "client" in this case. Nobody fucking doubts that there are shitty people on both sides, it's just that this time, the entitled brat was the mister tranny exposure bucks. If the artist is upfront with their price and terms it's take it or leave it. Having a meltdown about it on social media will just put you on several blacklists. Haggling is usually offensive anywhere unless you are buying in bulk.

>If I buy a game the game is now mine, I'll play it wherever I please, I'll stream it and make a profit if I please.
I agree with the rest of what you said but this example is obviously silly. Here's what you're overlooking. (You), the consumer, do not ever actually buy a game, buying the game would entail covering the cost of creating it (millions of dollars). You buy the right to play it, which costs almost nothing. You will never own the game, you just own permissions to do certain things. If you want to stream it you have to buy the rights to stream it.

This doesn't work for little Twitter artists because the cost to create the art is just their hourly price, so when you buy the art it is reasonable to expect to fully own the product, the same way you expect to own bread since you fully covered the cost of producing it plus profit for the producer.

If an artist wants to charge more because he thinks the client is gonna get rich and their art is worth it then sure, the client has the choice to find someone cheaper. I don't think the artist ever deserves to come back after the client is rich and demand reparations however

The "commercial fee" establishes nothing. It's a pricing structure that should inform whatever contract you sign. The contract should include language clarifying whether it's "work for hire" or "personal use only" or includes whatever type of commercial use etc. If you breach the contract then maybe you get fucked. That's why lawanon suggested "work for hire", which in the US at least is the most favorable "Superman movies don't owe shit to the guys who created Superman" type of arrangement.
But none of these people have lawyers.

Also, exposure means jack shit. Unless you are going to be a hololive tier popularity, your exposure does nothing for the artist. No one cares for the artist who drew the model unless you are like the top 0.00001% and even then the vast vast vast majority won't. This is a age old problem

>If you want to stream it you have to buy the rights to stream it.
As of now, it's still fairly murky as to what how far fair use goes in this case. As of now, it's not really hotly contested (although Atlus among others are starting to rock the boat in this regard) whether it's covered or not. I've seen some people say people should have to have "licenses" to stream at all, and others say they bought the rights to play the game themselves, so they should be allowed to stream it too. For plot driven games live visual novels or something, it gets way too ambiguous to tell right now, for the most part everyone just does it anyway. Agree with everything else though, the artist does not own the art once it's paid for so they can't make any new demands.

Under US law that's fine, because they specifically state "derivative works". Those do not have their own copyright and are owned by the original IP holder.

However, not all fan works are "derivative works", some are "transformative" and can acquire their own copyright, in which case using it would be copyright violation on the part of Cover. Something like a fan manga that has an original plot is likely transformative.

The more salient example would probably be Rice cracking down on Lestat fanfic, which was reasonably successful. More important than a legal case for the transformative nature of a fanwork is the capacity and desire to litigate it. That shit costs more money than either party is likely to make a) exploiting said transformative work or b) in defense of the zero dollars you made with it.

The it goes back to something that is being said in this thread, trying to charge commercial fees from 2views or 10views is retarded as fuck, even if you see them as a "business" they're not really, you're better off investing in them and hope they succeed so you can do so if they grow.
And that companies (or triple digit views) that don't want to deal with this shit will try to contract at a higher initial price point to not have to deal with fees bullshit.

If it's fanart, they probably have explicit permission from the artist in addition to whatever legal claim they might have over the work as derivative.

Exactly. Framing price structure as an "investment" in the market or the commissioning chuuba is only useful for artists than can afford the risk of investing. The kind of artists that 2views can afford to commission cannot be expected to take losses when the 2view fails.

Professional artists that are dealing with businesses will have the commercial fee as apart of the package. A business isn't commissioning shit for non-commercial use.
