WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 for a while I've been putting footage of games (home and away) on YouTube that I'd taken on my phone. Usually just out of boredom. Today though I get 2 emails through saying they've removed two of my NUFC vids for copyright infringement. No reason given, so I emails them. This was my reply..... Dear Matt, We received notification from FA Premier League. When we're notified that a particular video uploaded to our site infringes another's copyright, we remove the material as the law requires. If you feel a content owner has misidentified your content as infringing, you may file a DMCA counter-notification. two points. 1) is this the height of pettiness by the FA? Rather than sort out illegal player registrations they want to ban footage taken on someones phone of NUFC and Man Utd coming out before the match. 2) Has this happened to anyone else? Crap post I know, but I'm proper curious..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Admin were rubbing their hands together when they read that title. Aye, agree though - sounds petty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Videos and photos taken during the match, facing the pitch are copyright infringement unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gggg Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 The only reason the Premier League are bothered is Google now own Youtube so they can get some money out of them by suing them. There's loads of other sites like Daily motion that you can upload to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Not just during the match. Read today, as it happens, on one of our sites that a lad had the exact same message as he had posted phone footage of the Villa players doing the post match lap of honour last week. No match footage, just the lap of honour Petty, really Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Echo Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Aye sounds petty but I suppose broadcasting's their income so you can see why someone broadcasting owt they've paid millions for stirs them to action, just like tesco's - they didn't get where they are without crushing thousands of small shops around the country Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Whats the big deal with videos anyway? i understand live stream but whats wrong with videos? after MOTD there is no other TV station that shows highlights and goals so why not just let the fans watch content that the TV companies wont use apart from complilations etc. The only thing i can think of is sites like Newcastle World, which IMO should be fucking free anyway.
