I gotta say, ouch. Really know how to hurt a guy.
ON TOPIC: "draconian anti-piracy measures do more to harm the industry than piracy itself ever did in the first place". That was a thing that was said once, by a guy, who I assume knew what he was talking about at the time.
I don't know about you, but some of my favorite commentaries are from Bluexephos (and honeydew) and Huskystarcraft. They're not that great, but they have great humor and it's just a lot of fun to watch them.
And you know, I have adblock, so any revenue they get from me is from my view and like.

Hmm.. These youtube reviewers, we have problem with them! They do not adhere to our perfectly planned PR and might cause losses to our sales because of informing people about such irrelevancies as "bugs" and "gameplay issues". We have tried Doritos, we have tried Mt. Dew but they are resistant! They don't even use our ads to keep their sites running so no way can we squeeze them with those! .... Lets destroy their method of delivery then, absolutely.

If you have ever watched youtube in your life, you don't get a legitimate right to condemn youtubers saying they should get real jobs.
That should pretty much cover everyone in the 21st century.
was watching MARVEL:Agents of SHIELD last night on the internet - downloaded it because i cant watch it when its on TV - the ADS were embedded into the program as it was playing, just floating along the bottom of the screen, telling me how much i could save on insurance - guess that's gonna be the new way to advertise since ppl just turn the channel when commercials come on TV or mute the TV when commercials come on or block ads on internet - we all gonna be watching Big Bang Theory and Coke-Cola ads will just be floating on the screen corners as we watch it, changing to other products throughout the program, kinda like the channel names float on the corners now.../sigh...
Thing is, the uploaded is likely not getting the ad revenue.
These videos aren't being pulled, the money from ads is being split between the person contesting the video and google instead of the uploader and google.
Some cases, this is fair, Joe uploads an album that isn't his, he dosen't deserve a cent.
But if Guy uploads a video review, that's covered under fair use, and he does deserve his cut.

I like Preach's point of view on this.

From what I've heard it's really only video game streamers being screwed over by this. It seems to be mostly the music copy rights they're getting caught with too, not the actual game footage, but the music in games has a separate copy right usually that can claim it. So avoiding that will be as simple as turning off the music I guess in games where you can, if this situation is not resolved that is.
And I got about 5 seconds into that rant video before I turned it off, can't listen to people that angry.
This video is well worth it to fully understand the impact this is having. Most of the people in this video are big enough that they will be fine while it gets sorted out, but there are people who are not so lucky. The game companies are not doing this. In fact most have publicly come out and said they want this appealed. It hurts the game industry, this does not help anyone.
