Japanese group asks YouTube for system to prevent upload of copyrighted works

A Japanese entertainment group has asked the popular video-sharing site YouTube Inc. to implement a system to prevent users from uploading videos that would infringe copyrights, a group spokesman said Tuesday.

The Japan Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers sent a letter making the request addressed to YouTube co-founders Chad Hurley and Steve Chen by express mail and e-mail on behalf of 23 Japanese TV stations and entertainment companies, according to Takashi Fujii, a spokesman for the Jasrac group.

Most videos posted on YouTube are homemade, but the site also features copyrighted material posted by individual users.

YouTube's policy has been to remove clips that infringe copyright after it receives complaints, but questions have continued to linger about the site's vulnerability to legal claims for distributing content owned by other media.

Last month, YouTube -- recently acquired by Google Inc. for US$1.65 billion -- deleted nearly 30,000 files after the Japanese group complained of copyright infringement.

But Jasrac said in a letter dated Monday seen by The Associated Press that the problem has persisted, and that the current system "is not functioning well due to the (continued) large volume of illegal uploads."

The letter requested that YouTube introduce a preliminary screening system to prevent copyrighted clips from being posted. It also asked for a series of provisional measures, including posting a notice in Japanese about illegal uploads, requiring uploaders to register and terminating users who violate copyright.

The letter asked YouTube to respond no later than December 15.

YouTube has been negotiating with leading copyright holders and reached agreement with several letting the Web site post copyright music videos and other content in exchange for sharing ad revenue.

The company agreed to deploy an audio-signature technology that can spot a low-quality copy of a licensed clip. YouTube would have to substitute an approved version or remove the material automatically.

YouTube has licensing deals with CBS Corp. and three major recording companies: Warner Music Group Corp., Vivendi SA's Universal Music Group and Sony BMG Music Entertainment, which is a joint venture between Sony Corp. and Bertelsmann AG.

Since YouTube started in February 2005, the company has blossomed, now showing more than 100 million video clips per day.

YouTube's worldwide audience was 72.1 million by August, up 2.8 million from a year earlier, according to comScore Media Metrix. (AP

I've posted this before on other threads, but www.veoh.com has a lot of J-Ent videos, including drama eps, full movies and PV's. Best part is, you can download high quality versions of the clips if you download their software first.

interesting site !

I have watched all doramas I have seen so far on either youtube or dailymotion (www.dailymotion.com) and it works absolutely fine for me. Im not risking to get on smallband, so im not downloading any series (yet) ..

They showed this on NHK the other day, and luckily it's also on YouTube. It's called "A Geisha is Born", shows a Maiko graduating to a Geiko, fascinating stuff. The whole show lasts about 45-50 minutes, they divided into four parts, this is part one, the other parts are on the right: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6ZoMMgmgZw

So the Japanese entertainment industry cracks down on chopped up, low-res uploads of their programming and movies that serve only to entice viewers to explore j-ent more, highly restricts sale of their dvd's(through pricing, region coding, subtitling), then complains that they want a bigger world market. Congratulations on discovering how to kick your own ass.

Not much on Hulu.com - probably just a matter of time.
