|  |  | | And, preventing good non-copyrighted material to appear on You Tube while "policing everything" would be an absurd expectation for any company or industry.
Viacom needs to find a better way of making $$$ than by siphoning creativity for the petty business of marketeering. Far from being damaged, Viacom is just seeking moola and open-ended rights to nearly all material.
Say "poo" to you, Viacom. "Boo hoo" to you, and that is what I say. | |
|  |  | | nothing on you tube that is copyrighted is in good enough quality to watch anyhow! | |

| I've seen a fair number of videos on youtube, and I'm pretty sure all of them were not copyrighted material. While I'm sure you can find it, it's hardly the majority. So much of youtube is mediocre, and if that is copyrighted, it's not worth the effort to copyright it. | |

 Maze join:2006-02-02 Brooklyn, NY | We heard and not happy..... I don't care if it is Youtube, Veoh or any other site. Your not allowed to be on those sites in the first place. Even more is upload anything you make yourself. Starting today i'll make sure your bandwidth is throttled. Be it call comcast up, threaten to ligate or even take your own work down. So you go and buy my Dvd's / Cd's or any other media I put out. Even if you don't like what I have if you don't buy your not a real American. A real American is supposed to enjoy the trash I put out. You hear that? if I ever catch you on one of those sites! I'll make sure that my lawyers are everywhere. BTW: We already have our lawyers watching you under your beds. We never leave your room. We setup motion detectors, ear pieces that can pick up low sounds and even hidden cameras (we care about your privacy to sleep with your partner, but at a time like this it is ok for "us"). If you want we will not take your "love life" to court. Better yet we will just omit your private parts, while keeping your face for identification. We were afraid you might be listening to questionable material (Be it hate material against us, something you created yourself that is educational or entertainment otherwise). In your bathroom as well. So we installed their couple too. So No other contents for you you been warned.  | |

 | | How does this help Google? There is one big difference between this case and the viacom case.
The porn industry never sent Veoh a C&D order, Viacom sent hundreds.
Viacom send the C&D and only sued when Google didn't pull the vids.
Veoh got sued before any C&D was sent.
If anything the Veoh ruling says, you must serve notice for a site to be held responsible. -- Email/MSN: Michael at hardwaregeeks.comAIM: MikeR35292 | |

 | | Veoh deletes account No wonder a persons account was deleted and she was just posting Anime and had been for quite some time. | |
|  | | To share or not to share!
Viacom has been trying to prosecute many companies on the basis of copyright infringement for the last few years and in any cases been unsuccessful, its just another way for them to make money,I am glad Google and Veoh won these lawsuits.
Most of the YouTube content is shared by users... Viacom, get the facts right.
Veoh Keep up the good work! | |
|  | | Copyright
All material is protected under copyright as soon as it's created. So, infact, all content on Youtube/veoh, etc is infact copyrighted material, however the legitimate content was legally distrubited vice pirated content. | |
