Uploading movies or parts of it is illegal on the movie owner's part (I mean the producer, director etc). Some people use the clippings for their videos but they put a disclaimer message saying that they do not own the movie or its contents.

What are they not doing? Putting a DISCLAIMER message? Then they will have their accounts suspended soon after. In the worst cases, they make not be able to access Youtube and Gmail.

yeah.. it's 110% violation of youtube terms and conditions.. mostly it doesn't happen but if the company which has rights on that movie can claim you for big amount too.. better to avoid such situation..

@Jhovarie tens of thousands of videos are being uploaded to youtube everyday with just hundreds of staff youtube can't delete a video that easily and how will youtube staff know that a certain video violated their TOS? They will only remove a video or disable a user account if someone reported a video with enough proof that the video has violated their TOS.

Unless we hold internet rights , it is wrong or illegal to load movies onto youtube.

When you join with particular site, you need to read their TOS and privacy. For Youtube, you can see it here: TOS : http://www.youtube.com/t/terms Privacy: http://www.youtube.com/t/privacy_at_youtube You can find your answer there

im not asking about violation of youtube TOS and policy im asking about copy rights law because every Movie producer has a copy rights to their movie to avoid piracy.

Oh dear ... When particular user break Youtube TOS and policy, they automatically break copy right of movie right producers if they not had permission for it. They should asked permission first to the owner of movie before they posting on it on youtube. That why I posting Youtube TOS and privacy ....

I agree this discussion is about copy right law and not youtube policy. Though you can discuss anything you like I mean that is the bottom line, I think. Copy right is a difficult law to apply. If I make a video of me with a movie playing in the background is that a violation? What about music if I use just 10% of a song in a video and give credits in the video without payment is that a violation. I don't know the answer to my questions. - thanks

They usually remove full movies, but what you can upload is a movie clip you have created yourself.I mean your music, your editing, your choice of scenes.Sometimes separate scenes from the movies don't get deleted.I don't know why.I think it depends on country, language and movie company.I've seen several new non-English movies that are still there and no one complains about it.Hollywood movies are the most protected on Youtube.
