You Tube deletes 30,000 copyright files

Okay, why, you may ask, I put this here? Well, because it may concern all of you who watch anime there or post AMV. I got the news from yahoo.

Quote
TOKYO - The popular video-sharing site YouTube deleted nearly 30,000 files after a Japanese entertainment group complained of copyright infringement.

PUBLICIDAD

The Japan Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers, found 29,549 video clips such as television shows, music videos and movies posted on YouTube's site without permission, an official from the group, Fumiyuki Asakura, said Friday.

The San Mateo, Calif.-based company quickly complied with the request to remove the copyright materials, made on behalf of 23 Japanese TV stations and entertainment companies, Asakura said.

Most videos posted on YouTube are homemade, but the site also features scores of copyright material posted by individual users. YouTube's policy is to remove such clips after it receives complaints, though some have suggested the startup eventually could be sued, especially with deep-pocketed Google Inc. about to buy it for $1.65 billion in stock.

Asakura said the entertainment industry group may ask YouTube to introduce a preliminary screening process to prevent copyright clips from being posted.

YouTube has been negotiating with leading copyright holders and reached agreement with several letting the Web site post copyright music videos and other content in exchange for sharing ad revenue.

The company agreed to deploy an audio-signature technology that can spot a low-quality copy of a licensed clip. YouTube would have to substitute an approved version or remove the material automatically.

YouTube has licensing deals with CBS Corp. and three major recording companies — Warner Music Group Corp., Vivendi SA's Universal Music Group and Sony BMG Music Entertainment, which is a joint venture between Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE - news). and Bertelsmann AG.

Since YouTube started in February 2005, the company has blossomed, now showing more than 100 million video clips per day.

YouTube's worldwide audience was 72.1 million by August, up 2.8 million from a year earlier, according to comScore Media Metrix.

Yikes! :confused:

I was wondering why all the Code Geass raws on YouTube were going up and then being taken down. Perhaps this is the cause (or related to this in some way).

From what I heard Sunrise is behind that, most of their titles are being pulled. :hugs bittorrent:

T___T I can't get torrents to work on my computer. I can't even get .avi files to work on my computer. And I really want to watch Code Geass, too.

-_- Of course Youtube was going to be caught up in the corporate bullcrap eventually. Too bad, a lot of people were given access to series' they couldn't otherwise watch, and now that's going to be taken away. Lame.  :( At least they won't be deleating AMVs, right?

I had a code geass trailer up and I got an email from youtube saying sunrise wanted it taken down. If I did not my account would be deleted, needless to say I took te trailer down :P
Its a trailer for god's sake! I'm helping you advertise! Its not like I'm putting up your episodes.... I dont have the bandwith for that....

Dun worry If youtube falls another site will take its place. You can not stop the piracy *evil laugh*

Sounds like people like you are the cause of the problem instead of the solution. If a company doesn't want their stuff used, it shouldn't...plain and simple.

I THINK AMV's and MMV's are different, though I can't be sure.

I'm actually not too upset about youtube taking down it's anime so much, since the quality on there is extremely bad. I have to agree with Arcademan-san. People put extremely hard work into producing those episodes so that people like us can enjoy them. When we abuse that privilege....they lose money. If they aren't making a profit then no episodes period. I enjoy being able to watch episode's early as well..... But it would be incredibly selfish of me to be upset or go out of my way to disrespect the wishes of these companies.

Let's be happy with what we have. ^^ I don't think promoting piracy would be a very good thing, or speak very highly of our character, you know?

I guess it's fair... maybe not fun, but fair. If everyone watches Youtube, instead of purchasing anime, ect, then the actual media and merchaindise won't be sold anymore, and then I'll never be able to get any merch anywhere~!!
*cough*
It's for the best. ^_^; Thanks for the article link.

It's a double-edged sword. I do watch a few things on YouTube, I'll be the first to admit however if I really like a show, I'll buy the DVD when available.

That's why youtube is nice,  because some anime's that are very hard to find it gets uploaded there, so it is too an advantage.  :haha:  In my country there are ery couple anime stores, and they don't mostly have anything! I understand you, though you can buy on internet.

You can buy the anime episodes online. ^^ Even if you can't find the series you want in a store, there are always available resources.

Also! Bittorrent and other similar programs are still out there and available to everyone. If there is a series you think you might be interested in, simply download the first few episodes on bittorrent and decide from there if you want to continue. That is normally what I do.  ^^ Generally the movie/episode/show is much clearer.
