that sounds like a very reasoned response, Jay.

i look forward to seeing how this unfolds. if Veoh holds up to their statement that they will do what it takes to make things right and we agree that the right thing to do would be to remove all videos/feeds marked as "unclaimed feeds", then there is definite room for working with them - provided, of course, that the unclaimed stuff is removed post haste.

if, after that, anyone decides that they would like to sign up with Veoh and have their videos hosted there, they can re-enter their feeds/vids themselves. seems like the best way to make a clean start of it, in my opinion.

I agree with Peter and everyone's comments on Veoh.
Dmitry should remove all videos they have spidered, downloaded,
trancoded, and posted to their site. No one should have to ask for
this to happen because then the burden is on us to figure out what
needs to be taken down.

Since this hit on a friday....and Dmitry knows of the issue....lets
see what they do as the work week begins. lets give them some time.

As for Veoh sponsoring Vloggercon, we had been discussing this earlier
in the week with them.
obviously, we want to make sure they are supportive of the wishes of
the community before we allow them to put their name on the event.

We do not want to be exclusionary....and hope that we can get all
video companies to attend so we can talk to them directly. I would
love it if we had google video, youtube, etc at Vloggercon. as we've
been discussing off list, we need to make sure this doesnt happen
again. No one should be able to plead ignorance.
