By: Jeff Norton His main points focus on how the bill reads as poorly planned, and will lead to the shutdown of businesses that provide positive services and work for thousands of voice over talent. He writes: "Online casting sites will come under attack for the same ignorant, fear-mongering reasons behind the current bill, giving many legal right to shut us down....Finally, well…it has been a pleasure to serve you, but our days of getting work for full-time voice over professionals, without commission, and plenty of customer service, will be over. Hope your phone starts ringing." Voice123, in business since 2002, provides full-time work for more than 1000 voice artists on their website. In the beginning days of Voice123, assumptions of copyright left were discussed heavily. In the last four years, professional companies that have worked with Voice123, and have enjoyed their voice casting sessions, thereby stopping any threats of online piracy. Steven Lowell mentions that regardless of their success, a powerful business need only fear it is happening to create an issue for Voice123 because "lawsuits cost money". The blog concludes with a link to Reddit and comments from concerned voice talent, expressing the most effective ways to let Congress know this bill is not welcome.
