Hey Guys,
Sorry for the super long post...
I am with YouAreTV, and I wanted to give you a brief on what we are
doing. We actually want to be very different than youtube and google
video. When we first started we wanted to be like all of the companies
out there, but we realized that all of the

Well this is the problem. Some people wont be happy with that. Whilst
they remain they owner of the footage, they give you pretty much the
rights to do whatever you like with that video once they publish it
using your service.
If you got a deal on TV in future, you could show all the

Thanks for the input. We'll certainly take a look at our terms.

We are neither producers or lawyers. All we want to do is help users
get their video out there. That is our mission.
This is the first time EVER in history that individuals have had the
reach through video that they have had.

I really do hate to get into this over a message board.
But the terms basically say:
1. You have rights to whatever you upload.
2. You will always have those rigthts.
3. The stuff you upload you give YouAreTV NON-EXCLUSIVE rights to
distribute that content.

Perhaps I have misunderstood though it seems you have avoided my question:
1. Do you, youare.tv, get perpetual rights to the material? Yes?
The reason why this is so terrible for the content creator can be illustrated
by the following
example:

Right now we don't make any revenue from you videos. This clause helps
us to avoid any user from coming back and sue us saying HEY YOU OWE

I am not legal, but in this case please keep in mind all we have are
the rights to distribute and edit that content. We don't own the

for having 'perpetual' and other things in the tc.
I mean you have to make the users grant you some rights or you wouldnt

Your project looks promising. Any service that can raise the
signal-to-noise ratio is welcome in that it is harder and harder to see
