Great news but, as pointed out above, it could have easily gone the other way. Though it didn’t come out and say it, the court viewed open communication as more important than copyrights. More at http://digadvis...ne-against-umg/.

Does any of this really matter anyway? Veoh will be deadpooled by 2010. No one cares about them and the only views they get are for their illegal content.

While it’s easy to say “staff should scale too,” it’s very hard to implement. Assume a site has 2 million visitors per month, and only 50,000 of those visitors uploads one video each month. The expenditure of resources to keep users honest would be enormous and likely drain the coffers.

As a major content producer all you that embrace free content may someday find all of us (that pay to make it) will stop producing it.

Enjoy it while you can becuase if we can’t make any money at it then expect interesting original content to go away, or at least not to thrive.

This is quite an interesting (and in my opinion, positive) decision.

It could have easily gone the other way, as the theory of the case which UMG pursued is actually one of the movie studios’ more plausible arguments.

Good news for web 2.0 and indeed even web 1.0 sites everywhere.

For anybody that owns or operates a site driven by UGC, this is great news.

Personally, I find that a typical “members” have no compunction about uploading copyright content…however, with warnings, account disablement, bannings, etc, and “abuse reports” it’s not that hard to reign in the issue, even when you have a few million visitors / month…and as your traffic scales like Veoh, shouldn’t your staff to deal with stuff scale, too?

So…I guess I don’t see why Universal decided to get agro here.
