I Want to Kill Google!

[D'Snowth]

Ever since they bought YouTube they've just screwed it up big time! Now I understand them deleting actual episodes of network shows, but gee-whiz they're starting to delete CLIPS and fan-made "music videos": my favorites list went from 40 to 25 since a bunch of old "Monsterpiece Theater" clips have been deleted and on top of all that they just deleted the one and ONLY Kathy Greenwood dedication video!

I HATE GOOGLE!

Say it ain't so... Don't do it Snwothy!!!

Snowthy...you know I luv ya, so don't take this post the wrong way...

But you do realise that they only take stuff off of there that was illegal to put on there in the first place, right? I know I've done it, mixing popular music with clips, etc, but really there is no way you can blame Google or YouTube if they take down illegal stuff from their site...seriously...no.

Actually, I can go further. Now I'm a One Tree Hill fan, but I can't watch it when it airs because 1) I don't have cable and can't afford it. 2) I'm at church the time it airs. Soo...I watch it via Youtube and love it..until recently. Youtube/Google only pulls stuff when the company that actually owns the material contacts them. So umm...you're whining at the wrong party...go straight to the souce! The owners! (And it works if you bug them enough.)

I've got the blindfolds and pie!

There's a way around the music vids. As long as explicit credit is given and it is expressed the video was made only for fun, they usually don't pull them.

Wow, really Christyb? Where I live it doesn't come on cable at all. It comes on th CW right?

Si I hate to muffin with One tree hill but yes it many full episodes are one you tube. Just search One tree hill and the episode numbers. Oh yeah and to prove my point Warner Brothers has slacked off on pulling OTH stuff. blindfolds...pie?? Sounds like the recipie for a good pie throw.
