Only kidding! Yeah, it's quite scary to see stuff getting yanked down. But I was talking about this kind of stuff to a friend of mine, and he said that stuff like the Oscars could be part of some premium package that youtube could pull on us one day. To be able to view such content, one would have to pay for it. I don't think that would take off though, not for one minute. Plus the visual quality of most youtube videos are quite poor which would put me off for sure. Hey keep up with the podcasts, I'm really enjoying them (nightshifts=podcasts=much fun!) hehe!

However it is not so much the content that is the point I was trying to make. It is the principle behind the fact that it has been removed. I am referring to the sharing of content via an online medium. Remove the content or not allow people to talk about it and view it, you take away the buzz around the product or event or whatever. This is happening more and more, yet the owners of the content fail to see how allowing it increases their brand presence. I probably agree.
