it'll be down to "copyright infringement" claims or a "glitch" in the youtube software

Yeah, my guess it's the copyright whores at youtube. He'll probably be able to get it back up because my guess is all the violations are bullshit claims that can be refuted, but my guess is he gets a shit ton of them.
From looking at his videos, James has every right to post all that content based on fair use, and if he was rich enough and had a nice attorney, he could probably sue the companies for their bogus DMCA claims. But, there's a good chance he doesn't and he'll likely go the route of that guy with the glasses in the end.

This s*** has to stop. It's like SEGA going after people for simply talking about a game without even using its footage.

I don't think it's Nintendo that will be the problem. I have a feeling it's the larger movie companies, the viacoms of the world, that are doing stuff like this, his movie reviews basically.

Oh YouTube, will you ever do anything sensible? Or at least stop wiping your ass with Fair Use while kissing that of big companies?

YouTube is owned by freaking Google, so there wouldn't be much of a fight if one were to seek justice.
It sucks, but hey, what can you do?

I'm glad you mentioned that as I just read that story and while a lot of "fair use" stuff can be dodgy, having someone take down a video due to a copyright claim on the basis of someone talking about your company? That has to be a violation of the first amendment. |

I was up at around 3 am watching his videos so I actually found out about this by refreshing a video and seeing the notice. Surprised the hell outta me.
