| |  Concerning You Tube videos....
Not pointing any fingers mind you.  We should consider that a great many, if not most, of the videos at You Tube are breaking copyright laws. That is why they are removed on a regular basis. Clips from movies and videos are copyrighted and not to be copied and circulated.
Isn't wrong to link to or imbed them here as well? Isn't there a moral issue with this?

| | | Traci - YouTube encourages imbeding of its videos. As far as copyright infringement, you are right. That does happen on YouTube. Individuals need to be cognizant of this fact. |

Youtube--at least at the basic levels--precludes the ability to copy the information onto a DVD or Ipod. So I would argue that taping a tv show is more of a copyright violation than linking to youtube.
Also, not all youtube stuff is ripped from other movies. Some could be homemade, etc.

You become an accessory when you take someones pirated stuff and give it out. It used to be understood that recording off of tv was ok but now I am not so sure it is anymore. That is where I am foggy. We can make duplicates of our cds etc. for our own purposes but we can't then pass them around. This my understanding, I am willing to be corrected here. |

Long lengths of video are a problem but most (if not all) the studios and networks don't have a problem with short clips. It generates interest for their shows and movies. I was just reading an interview with president of CBS on that very point. A one minute clip is more like a commercial. |

This may explain the old adage about Baptists being Methodists with shoes, and Presbyterians being Baptists who can read. To round out the adage, Lutherans might qualify as Presbyterians who drink to excess, and Episcopalians as Lutherans who know when to say when. - D.G. Hart

That might not be so good after all... |
