I think you're absolutely right. If they haven't informed utube of what content is theirs then the DMCA will protect them. Viacom is already making money for the content by broadcasting it. Doesn't the money we pay to our television service provider ultimately end up (in some part) in the content creator's pocket. Why should they get more money just because you can view it in (very low quality) after it has already for broadcasted.
Maybe Viacom is going broke and this is a desperate attempt to survive. Google will win this IMO.
HaHa! It's also a good way to learn how to set your server on fire from 50 people hitting the 'application' at once. Has anyone use docs.sun.com during working hours? It's really like Sun runs this stuff on Windoze.
Java is horrible, it's great for the programmer but kills a machine. BTW, does the book discuss how to make the JVM memory footprint smaller?
