Youtube cracking down on downloads.
« on: Feb 13, 2009, 10:35: PM »
I saw this article http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/13/AR2009021302938.html

and it got me thinking if they start doing this do you think this will spawn the end of freestyle compilations?

What I believe will happend instead is that when someone does a video people will request a download link and it will just be so much better because they will be able to download the video in a much higher quality so it will deffinately not be the end of the freestyle compilations.

-Don't break combos.
-Don't use crossovers to save combos.
-If you're a new freestyler looking to improve, check the stickys in the help and advice section.

I think that youtube has become rather bad. A compilation using music is a way to show your work, and that's the point of youtube. Now they're deleting it. Doubble-moral in my opinion. Luckly we still have www.vimeo.com .

Wouldnt be suprised if that happens a lot of people getting pissed off with this copyright shit, loads of good videos being ruined :bang:.
Stuff like edwards yoons compilation one of the best freestyle comps ever ruined for no reason.
