| Considering that BIG Copyright Infringement notice when you upload a video, what moron would upload that to YouTube? Google isn't about to get sued over some moron who apparently can rip a show and upload it to YouTube but not be able to read!
YouTube isn't the haven for copyright infringement anymore or did users forget Google bought them?
I don't know why they just don't put all the shows on YouTube with ads included. | |

| Re: Nice said by hopeflicker :Christ! And they want you to load an exe to watch the videos. I wonder what that exe is full of. I wonder if that exe will run on my linux machine... Oh wait, it won't. So Fox is saying that I either watch their shows when they air them or I need to go buy a copy of Windows (and not the most recent version, 'cause that won't work) for $100+ if I want to see their shows.
Now, if I decide not to do that and instead turn to a pirated copy, do you really think that not having the episode on youtube is going to stop me? I don't. Especially considering I didn't even know they were on youtube in the first place. Well, at least not until they made a big stink about it. | |

It's disgusting, isn't it? If they weren't so afraid that people would stop watching their 720p broadcast, to see a stupid youtube 500 kbps clip, imagine how many more people would watch 24 on TV after seeing it on youtube.
The way to compete with a free service is to make a service that costs money, with better quality.
Why would I want to get the same thing for free, but lower quality and ad ridden? Because it's not "illegal"?

| Get some accurate news... The article you linked to left out some important details
"The "24" episodes in question actually appeared on YouTube before their primetime Jan. 14 premiere on the Fox broadcast network, which spread four hourlong episodes of the hit drama over two consecutive nights. Fox became aware that the episodes were on YouTube on Jan. 8, according to the subpoena." -from the Hollywood reporter
In this case is not much different than Apple suing people for violating confidentiality agreements and releasing product information before the official launch. Even if it turns out the copies were provided to television critics, those individuals have to sign a document that states they will not let that copy of the television program be publicly released. | |
