Skate America videos

It looks like U.S. Figure Skating has gone after YouTube. The videos that were downloaded of Skate America have been taken down due to copyright reasons. What's up with that? I suspect they want to protect icenetwork.com, even though the videos that were downloaded the days following the event were from TV broadcasts from other countries. That makes no sense to me at all. Why would they go after foreign broadcasts that were free to begin with, anyway? And I was seriously considering subscribing to both icenetwork and to USFS' magazine. Not anymore.

I'm going to download the videos I made from the NBC broadcast here. If anyone's reading this and needs a home for their videos, please contact me and I'll put them here. Let's see how long it takes for USFS to come after me!

At least the ABC broadcast of Skate Canada is this weekend. Those videos will definately go on YouTube.
