It depends what it's worth to you ... Titan employs a full-time lawyer you does nothing but chase copyright infringement issues on the Web.

About the only thing you can do as an individual is follow YouTube's procedures for copyright infringement complaints. You could try using DRM technology on your site to protect your movies, but that'll just piss off a bunch of your members.

What I would suggest is simply make sure all of you Web video clips are watermarked with your URL through the whole movie. At least that'll brand your site.

Finally, since you're all fired up about it maybe getting together a group of affected studios to approach YouTube is your calling. Why don't you spearhead it? If the other studios are interested, they'll join you; if not, you'll know where you stand.
