The only point of youtube is to find music and music videos.

That's what you get for using Lynyrd Skynyrd music. :P

But I agree that something must be done about this crap.

Well, they did say don't put copywrighted material on there, such as music vids, commercials, TV episodes, etc. The only times they will allow those is if the original owners of the properties have a youtube account, like I've seen HBO's user account and they can get away with showing FOTC's first season 2 episode. The only thing I upload on youtube is gameplay videos of video games I play.

People have copywrited material that they don't wish to have listened to or viewed for free. It's just the way things work.

I know it's BS.

I can't even upload any videos on there with good music, so I never really get many views on my videos..
Oh well, theres lots of other video sites :D

It's because there's some programs now that allow you to download the videos or convert them to mp3 format, which is pirating.

Can confirm that Sweden is having the same problem, I don't really understand it... if it's okay over the seas then why isn't it OK over here?

i read about it in radioblogclub.com a few years back, its something to do with a local law which apparently all the scandinavian countries came to an agreement with. This collides with some european regulatives, thus rendering anything that is questionable content for the scandinavian market in a permanent limbo. Legislators and lawyers being as they are, theyre taking a stance on the safe side of the lawn, pretty much enforcing rules as if they were no longer up to debate :| i feel victimized in behalf of all vikings =[

I always spent hours in making my videos.Music with clips of music or games.I put them on Youtube and after a while,they shut them down.I closed my account and deleted my videos after my 5th deletion.
I also stopped with the whole video-editing.

Not if you actually play live shows like a true musician.

This is silly. I always discover bands by having a look at some songs from youtube. Hell they even take off official videos. Red Hot Chili Peppers got screwed big time by this copyright BS.

On a side note I really hope they don't target videogame music. I don't have any idea where people find these obscure soundtracks and I'm not paying more than 20 bucks on one.
