  • I don't know what the licensing cost would be, but some things are worth the cost. :)

  • I had an issue with disappearing text when I posted a greater-than symbol from my iPhone yesterday, then changed it back when I got home - sorry for the confusion and making cupcake look slightly insane. ;D

    But yeah, copyright licensing costs are probably high, and the humor value definitely minimal. Leave it to the gnomes I say! :)

  • i bet glitch could get a sample of the music for free if they agreed to link to itunes if people wanted to download the whole song.

    not that i'd like that. but just sayin'.

    or even easier .. could also have the music block spawn the youtube video into the game window, which might even be funnier but again, not that i'd like that.

  • i think the way to deal with pop culture stuff if glitch wants to go that route is parody.

    so have a bureau-croc in a trenchcoat and a red rick astley wig appear and start singing a sound-alike version of the song.
