YouTube's Copyright Crackdown

http://videos.webpronews.com The Google-owned video-sharing site, YouTube, has developed a filtering technique that will weed out illegally updated copyright material. The technology is currently being tested and will fingerprint user-uploaded videos that violate copyright restrictions. YouTube is hoping their filter will prevent copyright violations. Find out all the details, including when the filter will be enforced, right here on WebProNews.

I hope these corporate whores rot in hell along with the rest of those fat cats... I just want to make a god damn video, with some fucking musical entertainment, that I can choose myself. Is that too much to ask for? Fuck you WMG, youll be gone in a week I hope

YouTube has violated Copyright Law by removing 3 of my youtube sites that exposed the evil elite, in other words my documentary films exposed the illuminati like no other channel ever has, period! I took things to another level, or should I say I took it 500 levels above the rest, as one viewer put it!

Time for a Class Action Lawsuit!

Filters, censorships, copyrights etc. why we invented the Internet then. It's supposed to be universal but some rich old jerks don't get the idea. I do not blame Youtube, I blame the idiots who thinks they are human. Humans are brilliant, idiots are not. Anyway, I'm sure if it wasn't for them then Youtube or any other site or even goverments wouldn't waste money on stupid things and instead they would do something useful for people.

WMG is pathetic. so they mute one song- there's always at least 5 or 6 versions of the same song, and they will never find them all

Youtube has changed for the worst

[KrispyApplez]

Youtube has ruined many of a fan-made music videos due to these over- strict-laws. Even users who have made animations from scratch using a 10 second clip of a song to fit the theme of the video had their videos taken down. Youtube use to be a place to upload ideas and promote videos has now become a barren wasteland of copyright-take downs. How can users make fan-made music videos if they are not allowed to have songs?

thumbs up if you think WMG can smd.

You know... If you think about an artist taking time to write, sing and produce a song which may cost him/her considerable time and money then someone comes along and steals it for their video, it's not fair, is it? Most video producing software now has 'royalty free' music for you to put on your video, if not do a google search and get some, there's lots out there for free with no restrictions. Don't steal other's music to sell your video!
