Tacking a commercial onto the bottom of a video is profiting from it, you are playing with words. The reality is that your entire business model would be "profit from other people's content for as long as possible before they get a lawyer or send in the correct DMCA paperwork".

I understand it, and I say more power to you if you can make money off of it (and limit your personal liability to being a software designer)
lol i think your again putting the cart before the horse. I understand where your coming from , im not trying to "dance" around the facts, but i think its rather absurd you would "presume" my entire business model when i havent even spoken 1 iota of it as it doesnt exist yet.

could it be used for violating copyrights , ? yes ? can any hard drive , or hosting service ? yes

so basically what your saying is every HOST or even FREEHOST is "profiting from other peoples content for as long as possible before they get a lawyer or send in the correct dmca peperwork " thats just silly

any host could be used to house copyright material the owner does not have rights to display .. so are you saying all hosting is bad ? or that hosting done in a responsible fashion is ok. ?
