Hello...

I heard that Youtube is going to crack down on copyrighted videos on its site in September. They are going to pull the plug on all videos that are copyrighted (movie clips, TV shows, motorsports...the list goes on).

This is so retarded...I can't live without Top Gear. Angry

Anyway, this is only a rumour but I think it is true. Anyone else have more news about this?

Either people will repost them or they will be uploaded elsewhere.

You do know it's against the law for them to host copyrighted stuff on their website? I'm surprised the copyright owners haven't sued them yet.

Viacomm (sp) is suing.

I don't know why the hell you're bitching about Top Gear though, since BBC's partnered with Youtube quite a while ago and Top Gear is part of the deal.


FUCK

Well, all are based on rumours I heard...how was I supposed to know about that deal? Thanks for telling. Big Grin

Which is why it must carry good videos (like TG) and many others that are copyrighted.

Thats like sueing RenForums because someone posts warez - its the user at fault, not a public service such a RenForums/YouTube

They are going to install a filter software to counter copyrighted video's.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

1000 North Korean kids in a basement validating every uploaded video? I don't see how it is going to work.

Yes, because they're keeping it on there. Like you're not allowed to host any DBZ videos due to copyright. If you give others access to your fileserver they can install the stuff, but you can delete it in a matter of seconds. For something as big as youtube it would take them a month or so to find anything like that.

I thought you would know this...

The reason youtube stays out of trouble is because when asked they remove stuff. The traffic will just go else where after google does this to youtube.

That stuff is copyrighted, and produced for profit, so it really shouldn't be spread around on a site like YouTube.

Now, if it had advertising for say, fifteen seconds before the clip, that'd be much fairer. The people who'll bitch and moan about not being able to watch a clip of the 'Gay Bee' from Family Guy without seeing a commercial will likely be in a minority.

I think Comedy Central does this with select clips from the Colbert Report, and the 'Daily Show' .

They are supposed to be monitoring the files already, so far they have all but stopped after google bought them. The original owners were deleting stuff left and right, I even got my 165 banned! The long tradition of Oblivion165 is sullied by a single Oblivion168...uhg.

In case your wondering it was Gunther videos that got me banned.

You touch my tra-la-la.

I think Google negotiated with several companies/people to leave their copyrighted stuff on YouTube and not fret about it.

I know Sony BMG has actually been smart, and has uploaded over 1500 of its music videos from years past, and they are commercial free. That's not only a good way to get people to buy the music from today, but it's also good publicity for bands that are no longer on the radio today. I already came across five videos by the hair/glam band 'Warrant' . Might mean a few more album sales for them too. Satisfied
