I no longer have the video on my hard drive. But I found two pictures from my youtube account

Seems particularly weird that the only video...they took down from my youtube account, was a video with clips of (Diggnation, and Ask A Ninja that use the Creative Commons License.)

this is why G4 failed for the most part and I now watch Diggnation and DL.tv

Zoomtechtv,

I apologize for an inconvenience, the video was not singled out because it was a DIGG video. All of the copyright material from G4 and TechTV has been flagged for removal on YouTube and they remove them as they are reviewed.

I had nothing to do with the Ask a Ninja video being removed, but I should point out that reposting CCL content to YouTube is not covered by the CCL agreement.

Since you are a fan of the content (I wont go so far as to say a fan of G4), i'll happily provide you with embeddable versions of the clips you like. I will even go so far as to encode and publish videos that may not be available currently from G4 so that you can have embeddable versions.

I just don't want you to think that you were singled out in any way or that this has anything to do with DIGG. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.

Josh

Yea, welcome to after the merge. Why were you watching AoTS to begin with? Do you just hate yourself? If so, most people will tend to slit their wrists, not watch G4 and giving a little hope to anyone monitoring the ratings.

What else is new. I haven't watched them since the merger, except for the X-Play podcasts.

G4 does suck balls, but I live in Canada and I get to watch The Lab with Leo. After that though, AOTS comes on and I sometimes leave it in the background for tech. But saying your video is copywright by G4, yet there are sooo many other G4 clips on Youtube that aren't removed, it angers me.

I was in a similar situation with a game I used to play called Runescape. I used Camtasia to record ingame footage, then my whole Youtube account was banned for "Copywright Jagex LTD." or some shit. But if you type "Runescape" in Youtube, you find many many clips. Just so you know I quit that game a year ago, but the fact that after that clip being uploaded for months without it being removed and 1000s of views... WTF!

I still go on the G4 forums, mostly for Tech Support because of the old TechTV fans that hang out there. Other than that most of the forum members there are pathetic and under the age of 12 and just hit puberty.

I hate G4 and I'm starting to hate Youtube.
