If they don't offer any verification process, then how can they expect legitimate videos at all? I agree with GetShorty. Get another host, and cite the reason in the exit email. (that is, if they care to know why you are leaving) Try not to get charged for leaving. I mean, if you have paid in advance, then get your money back.

Title: Apprentice Join Date: Oct 2005 Posts: 481 ![]() | http://www.youtube.com/slightofcards Sorry about the self promotion, but this is what I have done in my videos which proves that I own them. I introduce my website, then I put a watermark in the corner. Yours might not work like that, but it is always good to introduce your site or write something on your body that says it is your site

In adobe Premeire Pro 1.5 i'm pretty sure it is .proj or something close to that. Also, put a small watermark in the corner of all your captured clips. That is what bigger companies do so that no one can "steal" their footage and they can claim that it's their own.

The RIGHT way to go about a legal copyright imho is that you would make a Hard copy of your project and send it to yourself by registered mail - That way you have an independant arbitration point to argue if it came to any lind of legal action - the 'Date' being the obvious importance here

| Title: Rookie Join Date: Oct 2006 Posts: 17 ![]() | thats a really good idea... I don't see how mailing it to yourself would work at all though. Couldnt you still tweak someones videos, make a hard copy, then send it via registered mail? I do get your point though, we do need better DRM in this world. p2p users have kind of ruined it for the rest of us that don't steal every piece of media we see. | ||||
