Two ways for the judges to deal with this:

1)  View animations with the sound turned off.  I already judge the
anims this way (since judges are supposed to ignore sound).

2) Turn the sound on, and if copyrights are violated, award a scare of
1-1-1 to every violating entry.  I already plan to do this if I see a
copyright violation in the visual media.

The administrators could reject the entries for being in violation of
the rules.
