Title: WTF is going on with Youtube????
Post by: QuakerOats on March 12, 2009, 12:31:00 PM
every video i click on lately is coming up "We're sorry, this video is no longer available", any of you getting this, you can't even e-mail anyone about it on there because there's no contact e mail or person.

Retrying it a few times after refreshing usually fixes it. In the category of "hang on tight..". Different from the deleted vids, those are gone.

I put up a slideshow/home movie thing of my son. I set it to a John Lennon song. My mom went to watch it and they had deleted the song but left the movie.

they must have developed a software to 'smell' audio of certain song databases and remove them all at once.  like that i-phone that can hear a bit of a song and identify the title.

I like to watch youtubes of 'bass player jamming with this track' as a quick way to learn songs.  They removed dozens of them overnight :(

Well soon to be one less Strat in the world. I'm sorry but that guitar is beyond cliché. Just not my cup of tea.

But why do I even bother I don't play instruments anymore... except an occasional asskicking on my digital drumset.  ;D

This was in the news the other day over here in England.

Music fans will no longer be able to watch their favourite videos on YouTube after Google blocked viewings during a dispute over licensing.
Google started to block UK viewers from watching ‘premium music videos’ from tonight but said it will take several days until all professional music videos are covered by the restriction.
The internet giant described it as a ‘painful decision’ which it knew would cause ‘significant disappointment’.
 
PRS for Music licenses Google to make music videos available to UK users on YouTube but the firms are currently negotiating a new licensing deal.
PRS for Music said it was shocked by Google's ‘drastic action’ which it said would ‘punish’ music lovers and songwriters.
The collection society which issues licences and collects royalties on behalf of copyright holders, said Google wants to pay ‘significantly less than at present to the writers of the music’ while Google said the deal it had been offered would result in it losing money every time a video was played.
A statement from Google said: ‘Our previous licence from PRS for Music has expired, and we've been unable so far to come to an agreement to renew it on terms that are economically sustainable for us.’
It said ‘prohibitive licensing fees’ were an obstacle in the negotiations.
‘We value the creativity of musicians and song writers and have worked hard with rights-holders to generate significant online revenue for them and to respect copyright. But PRS is now asking us to pay many, many times more for our licence than before.
‘The costs are simply prohibitive for us - under PRS's proposed terms we would lose significant amounts of money with every playback.
‘In addition, PRS is unwilling to tell us what songs are included in the licence they can provide so that we can identify those works on YouTube - that's like asking a consumer to buy a blank CD without knowing what musicians are on it.
‘We're still working with PRS for Music in an effort to reach mutually acceptable terms for a new licence, but until we do so we will be blocking premium music videos in the UK that have been supplied or claimed by record labels.
‘This was a painful decision, and we know the significant disappointment it will cause within the UK.’
PRS for Music said it was ‘outraged on behalf of consumers and songwriters that Google has chosen to close down access to music videos on YouTube in the UK’.
A statement from the firm said: ‘Google has told us they are taking this step because they wish to pay significantly less than at present to the writers of the music on which their service relies, despite the massive increase in YouTube viewing.
‘This action has been taken without any consultation with PRS for Music and in the middle of negotiations between the two parties.
‘PRS for Music has not requested Google to do this and urges them to reconsider their decision as a matter of urgency.’
Chief executive Steve Porter said: ‘We were shocked and disappointed to receive a call late this afternoon informing us of Google's drastic action which we believe only punishes British consumers and the songwriters whose interests we protect and represent.’
While negotiations continue, Google said it would be working ‘to create more ways to compensate musicians and other rights-holders on YouTube’.
It recently introduced the option for YouTube users to pay to download a song.
‘We hope that professional music videos will soon be back on YouTube for our users in the UK to enjoy,’ its statement added.

It's bullshit to delete music that has been on MTV for years and shown hundreds of times. And on top of that, for some artists there are official legit music videos put on by the music company, but then Youtube might delete some song from the same artist even if there were 20 videos of that artist already.

And I don't think it's fair to allow some videos to be watched only in one country, but that problem comes from the stupid uploaders.

Agreed.  If they don't fix it, they'll be done.  Already, I stopped posting clips on there and use Facebook instead.  Much better.
All your "friends" know about it and they're FULL resolution.
Facebook>Youtube
Typical of the music industry to whine over something that creates zero cash flow for someone else.  How are you profiting from a youtube video?  There are exceptions, but most don't.
It's great to see industries meltdown and try to get a handle on digital copyrights...sorry, it will never happen.  Thanks to torrents and other P2P software.
Never underestimate a millionaires greed. ;)

Does anyone have the drawn picture where there is radio, television, cassettes etc and there reads something like "remember how radio was going to destroy music industry?" and "remember how television was going to destroy cinema?" and then there is something about the internet in the same fashion.
