Most of those “porntube” sites don’t work well – they don’t have the infrastructure to handle the bandwidth. PLUS there are too many sub-genres, for instance: Zen and the Art of PORNOGRAPHY! :D – I’m not Kidding!

Not so long ago, the courts made a distinction between sites that made an attempt to editorially filter content and those that did not. Prodigy suffered from a libel action brought against it because it claimed that it filtered content. CompuServe and AOL both survived a libel action because it did not. Though libel cases are not the same as copyright infringment: I wonder why social networking sites should be held responsible for videos they neither solicited nor sought.

There have been mixed reviews in copyright cases. I cannot support the wholesale uploading of copyrighted material on YouTube, Veoh or other social networking sites. At the same time, given the technological sophistication available to program producers--I find their claims rather lame that they cannot properly encode and protect their digital properties. It is like someone who refuses to shut their front door calling the police everytime someone comes in and steals from them when all they would have to do is lock the door. If Sirrus and XM Radio can figure out a way to get content to millions of listeners who pay for their sevices and deny them to those who do not, surely program producers can do the same. Stealing is never right and copyrights need to be honored--but program producers need to step up and take responsibility instead of constantly suing users and websites.
