Is making PMVs against ToS?

For anyone who doesn't know, PMV is porn music video, which is like a compilation video but typically tied to the music more than the videos. They tend to wind up kinda similar to the trailer videos that studios make for LP (music, short cuts etc)

So we agree not to distribute the videos online, as they're supposed to be downloaded for private use only right. But the LP players even have features for grabbing GIFs of limited times and encourage sharing trailers etc. If a PMV lasts a couple of minutes, and only really includes pretty quick cuts of a couple of seconds or less it's not really too different than just getting the GIF snips and compiling them along with music, right?

But it's weird territory when it comes to these sort of agreements. There are tonnes and tonnes of PMVs out there, but I also don't know if the people creating them are hiding their names etc from the places they get the content from. Does anyone know how studios (or in particular Giorgio) would feel about something like that? Could it be viewed as basically just creating a new trailer/fanart kind of thing, or would it be viewed as maliciously distributing content?

PMV are great. Some of them are so good, I’d actually pay a small amount for them. Maybe talented editors could release PMV of LP scenes on their platform, as a way to generate more revenue from older content and also to earn a small income for the editors.

If demand is there, it’s a win, win and win. For studio, editor and consumer.

I meant to say, release on this platform. Not a separate one. Keep them in-house. Especially during the corona period as extra content.
