More on YouTube

I think that everyone who has written a post so far on the website YouTube can agree that this website is very helpful in many ways. I explained in my last blog how I always use YouTube when I do not know anything about a topic. This helps tremendously because it gives me an idea of the topic. In the last blog by Tom I can see how using YouTube for a video that is not out yet could help a lot when considering if you wanted to buy the game. YouTube also makes this possible with movie trailers. In the long run this program could actually save you money because if you were going to go out and buy a movie or a video game, watching the YouTube video on it first could help decide if it is really worth buying or not. For our Digital videos that we are doing in class it is also possible to look up your topic and get an idea of what other people have done with their video. Im very happy that YouTube has found another way around the copy writing lawsuites by simply adding an itunes like of where you can get that music. When I heard this in class I was really excited because I wanted to post my finished video on YouTube but was nervous that I could get into trouble. I think it is very smart the way they handled the situation. People using artists songs for their YouTube videos not only advertises the song, but also gets people to possibly buy it.
