I'm talking about DailyMotion, not YouTube.
All they have to do is limit it for a day or two. Or limit it randomly here and there. Watch how fast Peekvid's traffic would drop.
As for your multiple domain suggestion, do you really think you can register and setup multiple domains faster than DailyMotion can block them? Any clue how annoying it would be to register the domain, set it up, get videos loading on that domain, set up advertising on that domain, and then have DailyMotion block it?
Face it, kiddo. These guys are fucked and they know it. That's the only reason they're trying to sell the site so fast.Comment

LOL.. you are silly..
they can permanently block them just the way youtube blocked them.. by using peekvid to seek and destroy the copyrighted content itself...
In Mid December a legal case in Australia under appeal was upheld by the Full Federal Court (the country where the owner of peekvid is located) named "Cooper v Universal Music Australia Pty Ltd", resulted in being found guilty of authorizing copyright infringement.
it basically made it known that copyright infringement linking in Australia can land you in hot legal water.
So ya.. if Australia is no longer a safe haven for linking to copyrighted material and I owned peekvid.com i would want to unload it as quickly as possible..
more info here via zdnet news
this lawsuit was an extremely huge deal in Australia.. a friggin media circus that most Australians should be familiar with if they have access to a television, radio, or newspaper...
now i do see some changes like hosting may have moved out of Australia, but the fact is, the owners are still in Australia LOL
Facing lawsuits, Youtube actually used peekvid.com to pinpoint and remove any copyrighted material, now with legal documents served to dailymotion, dailymotion may do the same..
I do have to say, they have plenty of publicity.. I mean they are constantly discussed on News sites.. here's a few quotes I found in about 5 minutes time:
MSNBC says:Here today gone tomorrow
PeekVid
Whoa, is this a gem. It will definitely not be long before this site is gone like the wind.
cnet news:an intellectual-property lawyer familiar with Peekvid thinks the site may well be violating the law.
"It took me about two minutes of looking at Peekvid to determine that what's going on is clearly a violation of (the rights of) the copyright owners of those videos," said Marc Mayer, an intellectual-property partner at Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp. "It looks to me like what's going on at that Web site is a catalog and index, really a road map, to infringing content...What is going on is plainly copyright infringement."
Forbes regarding linking to videos on dailymotion:Pace, "Max," and other portal administrators claim that their pet projects are legal. Many offer disclaimers on their sites, pointing out that their servers host no copyrighted content. "I let people watch the shows for free, I make a little money for my time and I'm not breaking any laws," Pace says. "I'm simply linking to videos hosted by another site."
That legal argument doesn't quite hold water, says John Palfrey, a professor at Harvard Law's Berkman Center for Internet and Society. Because the portal sites have no use other than aiding copyright infringement, he argues they're illegal under American copyright law.
iMedia Law:More than half of the incoming links that site gets is from news sites, or blogs discussing legal issues all with a prediction that the site will be taken down in a short period of time with the owners thrown in jail....If peekvid is located in the U.S., I suspect it won't be long before the link fails to work owing to NAB and MPAA legal actions. QuickSilverScreen was located in the U.S. until Fox sent it a cease and desist letter.
I take back my offer of $150 USD and change it to 150 japanese yen...Last edited by Naughty-Pages; 01-18-2007, 08:28 AM.400 HARDL1NKS only $117! - (100 for $45)

It took some of you people to page three to figure out that a "site like you tube" would be a major copyright violator? Wow.
Basically, for 450k, you get $1600 a day of "profit" and probably about a billion dollars worth of legal liabilty. Strip away the content that is used without permission from the copyright holder, and the profits would drop to about, what, $1 a day?
It comes down to this: Could you buy the site and run it for another two years to recoup what you spent and the bandwidth it will use, in order to maybe make a profit on it later, all the while not managing to get a legal ass fucking that will take most of the rest of your natural life to recover from.
I would recommend taking the money, going to vegas, and betting it all on black or red (your choice). Your odds are much better there to make a profit, and the potential losses are smaller too.Comment
