Sure if they syndicate their feed for others to use and you use it within the TOS.
However don't just suck videos outta pages or anything like that.

Yeah Smokey there was a massive blowup about it a while back, people were being
hunted for stealing links. Courts have shown that the specific collection of links on a site
are copyright the site-owner.

Just like the dictionary has words in it which anyone can use.....
It is still copyright violation to copy a whole dictionary into a new one. (red herrings)

People put alot of hours into building relationships and reviewing submissions, tailoring their site to the market
and weeding out the bad stuff...... If you come along and steal that work and the site-owner knows the
value of that work, and the profit you're making from said work..... you will be sued.
