So I have LEGAL tube site that takes webmaster submissions. Lately I see a pattern of webmasters submitting promo videos they got from affiliate programs with their own URL like /pussy.davidsporn.com When you look at that urs it becomes clear that its nothing but lame tgp or banner portal and they are just trying to get some traffic. How do you feel about this?
How do you feel about webmasters submitting sponsor videos with their own watermarks?

Are you allowing those videos? If so it's not a legal tubesite anymore.jim (at) amateursconvert . com Amateurs ConvertComment

like someone else said, if it's a so-called 'legal' tube site, the tube site needs to respect that the content is bound by the copyright, and the copyright is held by the sponsor, not the affiliate
the watermark part of the equation is not the issue exactly, who owns the copyright and what they have allowed as use is the issue

Um that would typically mean they would need to strip my watermark which is a no fucking way type deal. Then they would encode it again at a smaller size and well hell no fuck that. I am also no legal scholar but I think if they do that much altering to my work they would then put themselves on the legal 2257 hook and or if it needs to be taken as a whole.Comment

Every time I go around the latest tube sites looking for our stolen stuff, I come across these bastards not just stealing our material but adding their watermarks over... GRRRRR
Holy shit, what's next? Tubes will charge the surfer to give them access to my stuff?????Comment

There is a way to do this to keep the sponsor happy and the affiliate happy. If you use a dedicated domain to that sponsors site for instance, and either have just content and links going only to that site, or a fast redirect going directly to the sponsors site. Personally I use mostly content that I've bought to do that with though. But I have done it with quite a few sponsors and got their permission first.Comment

seems to me that most programs don't register their content with the library of congress which is what it takes to own the copyright. -bmbComment
