copyright asserted
A
digital rights company representing sporting bodies has asked YouTube
to remove about 1,000 videos for copyright infringement.
NetResult represents Formula One, the UEFA Champions League, the Football
League, and Australian Open Tennis.
It ontacted a further 10 websites that host links to clips which it said
infringes copyrighted material.
YouTube was already forced to take down 30,000 files from its website
after Japanese media companies said their copyright was being infringed,
according to reports in the Guardian newspaper.
On October 9, 2006, Google Inc announced it had agreed to acquire YouTube,
the consumer media company, for $1.65 billion in a stock-for-stock transaction.
Following the acquisition, YouTube would operate independently to preserve
its successful brand and passionate community, said Google.
Founded in February 2005, YouTube allows the sharing of original videos
on the web and through blogs and by email.
YouTube delivers more than 100 million video views every day with 65,000
new videos uploaded daily and has quickly become a destination on the
Internet for video entertainment.
