Web model threatens to take legal action for having her chat room promoted.

OK, so as far as I know... or have always thought... if a performer is part of a cam network, then anything that performer streams through that cam network is copyright of that cam network and thus the cam network and it's affiliates may use the content as seen fit... especially in promotion of the cam network or the performer.

Now let's say I have a web site that promotes a cam network and I take a snapshot of a performer of the cam network to promote that performer and the cam network through my website. To my knowledge this has always been acceptable. I do not need permission from that performer since all content streamed though the cam network is property of the cam network and not the performer.

I do not have a problem with removing the photo or link to the performers that have a problem with being promoted, although I don't understand why anyone would be against it.

Am I mistaken?
Thank you.
