>>>I have seen quite a few concerts on Youtube. They look like concerts that were recorded on DVD (an hour or longer in length). These concerts must be copyrighted. How does it happen that Youtube does not enforce copyrights? (I am not complaining; I actually like what I see; just curious).

>>YouTube doesn't have to do anything until someone complains:

>>Until they get a complaint they can monetize any content they're hosting (by adding advertising etc.).

>>Apparently they get a lot of DMCA takedown requests:

>Interesting article. Thank you. I have a 10 min DVD that I wanted to upload to Youtube. If you don't see me on UT starting a few days from now, you know where to look for me <g>. Unless I can log into UT from the jail.
If it's a popular enough upload maybe you can make your own bail:
