The Tangle of Copyright, Fair Use, and YouTube

Here is an interesting article on the issues of copyright, fair use, and user-generated content. It is a complicated issue, as you can see from the discussion of the various court cases and different perspectives from copyright holders, users, YouTube and other hosts for user-generated content, viewers, and others.

The article seems particularly timely in light of Mr. Rother's Rants and Raves post about his group's video being taken down from YouTube.
