Ask the creator of the video/blog what they would prefer? I honestly think a lot of these problems arise through lack of communication, as seems to have been demonstrated by the whole Veoh thread - once they showed that they would comply with people's wishes regarding their content, opinion shifted significantly towards the positive. This may prove an object- lesson in how to conduct such matters: ask first. Christian Yahoo!
