Veoh has my whole feed in their service. They have ripped my videos to their formats and are re-distributing them, using their own permalinks.
>From their own TOS: " As explained above, Veoh does not permit copyright infringing activities on the Veoh Service and reserves the right to terminate access to the Veoh Service, and remove all User Materials posted, by any persons who are found to be repeat infringers (i.e., persons found to have uploaded copyright infringing User Material on more than two occasions)." Here's the email I sent them: Dear Veoh, You are infringing on my license terms for Hold My Beer and Watch This! (http://mortaine.blogspot.com). I have a creative commons license on my videoblog. My license terms are derivs-ok, non-commercial, and must-attribute. This means that if you make a derivative work by ripping my videos to your format for re-distribution, it must be for non-commercial purposes. From what I can see, Veoh is a commercial entity. If this is not the case, please send me your 501c status documentation. However, you are still violating the "must-attribute" portion of my videoblog's license, and that is not acceptable. You are displaying my work on your website without attribution to the creator. Please create a clear, unambiguous link-back to my website. Personally, I would prefer it if you made the permalink space on your site as a permalink to the vlog entries on my blog site. It's not as if you don't have that data available, and doesn't seem like it would be too technically difficult. Failure to comply with my CC license means that you are infringing on my copyright, something that is specifically prohibited in the Veoh Terms of Service. Please let me know how you are rectifying this situation. Sincerely, Stephanie Bryant -- Stephanie Bryant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blogs, vlogs, and audioblogs at: http://www.mortaine.com/blogs Yahoo!
