This is a major case. I'll be watching the progression of Youtube's copyright issues closely (I'm in Trademark Law.) Thanks for the article.

I made an Avatar: The last airbender Music Video that got pulled a couple days ago. Suffise to say, I am furious- making a video that shows part but not all of an episode is NOT copyright infringment, and even if they were not going to allow AMVs (Anime Music Videos), why not pull them all? because the nation would riot in the streets. Intentially posting episodes of shows on youtube IS illegal, but music videos only using part of an episode should remain legal on youtube as "creative use". Has anyone seen south park? It only takes one episode pulled to take down a show forever. Youtube is no different.

The maser plan, imho, is to build a new ad product NOT a filtering scheme; and then make video ad placement the anchor for their intended attack on branded national advertising in 2007. The ability to integrate a campaign between TV placement and Google video placement is a fertile ground for ad/placement innovation, and prime territory for leverage of YouTube.
