asked on

any You Tubers?

If I upload some of my videos from VHS tapes that I have moved over to DVD, or other videos, can people I know download them?

Would my videos be totally public for downloading?

I see videos on You Tube from "every possible" source.
Individuals, nationally televised programs, home movies, even a lady posted a video of her neighbor's dogs barking so she could prove they bothered her in the night, funerals, etc. Surely none of that is copyrighted material?

So, which of these videos, if any, are bound by the rules of You Tube?
All the copyright mess in regard to music downloads seems to have gone away or, at least, you never hear about it any more.

Are videos different?

Thanks.

So, if I take a home movie of my dog sleeping, and I upload it to YouTube, can I only allow certain people to download it, or is it there for the public to download?
I think you can set that I have never tested that.

I see alot of people uploading their own stuff.

Can they put restrictions on who can watch them?

Or can people interested, ask them, and be able to view all that person's personal collection?

Does anyone have a YouTube account?
