I also use YouTube. But, what’s the point of a 10 minute limit if YouTube Partners are allowed to upload longer videos, even if they’re copyrighted?

I understand a time limit to discourage and prevent copyrighted material from being uploaded, but 10 minutes is too short. DailyMotion has a much more reasonable and just as effective time limit to deter uploading copyrighted material which is 20 minutes. YouTube should raise the limit to 20 minutes.

Only an ass who believes everything the media tells him would believe the 10 minute limit is reducing copyright infringement. This article is just as misleading as it is gay.

I watch copyrighted work all the time on YouTube. People are still able to upload copyright work even with the 10 minute limit.

Material is still being passed through, but I never see a copyrighted stay on the website for more than a month, or so.

I say they’re doing a good job.

>”Of course not, material will still pass through the filters and be cut into parts – it will however make the identification of those videos and the people uploading them much easier for YouTube.”

Actually, it would seem harder to stop the pirating if they upload in pieces. The easiest way would be to look at videos of certain length (TV length). Now that it is in parts, it blends in and would be much harder to pick out of a group of other 10 minute videos.
