Copyright Infringement, YouTube, and Video Sharing

YouTube to Implement New Technology Against Copyright Infringement: a subversive plot by Big Video (Big Oil, Big Tobacco, why not BV?) to rip off the masses by oppressing video sharing; or a sensible step toward keeping folks who make a living making videos from being ripped off?

I vote for the latter.

And yes, I know about residuals, RIAA lawsuits (Recording Industry Association of America), and the now-nearly-defunct studio system in Hollywood.

I still believe that people who go to the trouble of creating 'intellectual property' should be rewarded for their efforts.
