I think copyright is only one part of the problem here. The bigger problem in my eyes is that by Veoh caching and rehosting videos without permission they are making it seem as though all these vloggers are members of the Veoh community, agreeing to Veoh's terms of service, when this is not the

Helo Josh,Just to address one very very specific thing that you said. (And not trying to address everything you said.)The HTTP protocol has a way of tell things not to cache something. HTTP has a no-cache header for this. (Again I know people will probably very passionately NOT like what I'm

Uh, dude, this is so far off the subject.I'm not talking about browser caching.I'm talking about downloading videos from one server to another and then redistributing them as your own. Different subject entirely and not one having to do with HTTP protocol. -JoshOn 4/9/06, Charles Iliya

But Charles they aren't caching. Caching is keeping a copy of an object to make new requests for it faster. They are hosting derivative works. The work was downloaded. Transcoded to a new format. And that completely new format is HOSTED (not cached) at a new location. Requests for this new
