OK, this thread got out of whack... it was not about Veoh, but how other services are doing roughly what Veoh has done but to mainstream content owners while hiding behind their supposed inability to enforce their own terms of use....
Just trying to get back on track here. This thread was about the large amount of copyright infringment happening on the various video clip sharing services (YouTube, vSocial, et al) and how those services "look the other way" and, much to their own benefit, tolerate the copyright infringing practice of a relative minority of users. -Josh On 4/8/06, David Howell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > First.
