As long as the legal system and the educational system exist in the twisted, fractured states they embody today we will always keep producing idiotic masses of cattle who believe in evolutionarily dead ideas like copyright and nations.

Only if we're willing to risk losing everything with it. This place gets popular enough, we attract the ire of the music groups. It's always been that way. If the act of registering has put enough of a damper on site growth, I weep for the future of humanity but recognize that the assumption that it does was actually the reason we do it, not the reason to stop. It'd be great if someone like Phade would step in and say one way or another, but I always saw the purpose of registration as a safeguard against explosive growth and the inevitable consequences it entailed. I swear this has been discussed before though. Anyone else have any records of official reasoning?

It would be nice. Which is why you'd want it. People would use it. A lot of them maybe. It just takes a few vocal people to go viral and the spotlight moves from youtube to here once people fill their comment pages with a better site to go to after all the takedown requests decimate things. It's a risk we have to see if we want to take or not.

You think the org could not only be as successful as youtube, but even MORE successful than youtube. Somehow I doubt Google will ever be cutting Phade a check for 1.65 billion to buy the org.

You're putting words in my mouth. I never suggested such a thing. There's nothing stopping the RIAA or the labels themselves from waging war on multiple fronts. They've been doing it for years just fine. Any attention is greater than the zero they seem to pay us now. And if past responces are any indication, it wouldn't take a hell of a lot to bring local down pretty hard - A couple of letters, really. Youtube has enough clout to make DMCA filings have to happen for every single video uploaded over and over again. We've dropped several thousand with a single request - not even a formal DMCA request. It'd be trivial. They could get an intern to do it while making coffee.

I'm not trying to seem :tinfoil: - just pointing out the potential consequences. You'd weigh them in any decision like the one being suggested.

Don't donators already have the option of embedding their previews on external websites for everyone to see?
