Hi all,

Has anyone ever looked into the legal aspects of using YouTube videos to derive 
information from? Do any general rules apply? 

An example of a potentially useful video would be 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH99jVtb1eg&feature=youtu.be - I see that the 
Standard YouTube License is applied to this video, the salient part of those 
terms (to my mind) being 'You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, 
broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any Content for any 
other purposes without the prior written consent of YouTube or the respective 
licensors of the Content.’ 

See the full terms here: https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms 

Note that YouTube users can also choose a CC-BY license - which should be 
compatible with ODbL. But the default is the Standard YouTube License outlined 
above.

Thanks -
