YouTube News

Reuters reported today that of all the videos on You Tube, less than one in 10 videos were uploaded without the permission of the copyright holders. As you may know, Google owns You Tube. A video tracking firm Vidmeter.com tracked and analyzed the information. Only about 6 percent of viewers pull pirated clips from You Tube. That’s a very small number considering how many internet users there are.

Media companies don’t agree with Vidmeter’s numbers. They say that Vidmeter only counted those videos that were taken offline. I wonder if it is possible to track all of the rest?

This report is timed just right to coincide with the $1 billion lawsuit between MTV and Google over You Tube’s “massive, intentional copyright infringement.”
