Uploading to youtube, Illegal or Legal ?

Yep, many time  people asking about uploading to youtube is legal or not.  So here I found some material from internet. and other. so here I suggesting for you all.

Read on 3 page from youtube,

1. Privacy Policy
2. Terms of Service
3. Copyright Notices

There is a doctrine called Fair Use, which says that people can make use of someone else’s work under certain circumstances. There are no hard-and-fast rules, but it’s probably Fair Use if:

• The use is non-commercial (you’re not making money off of it);

• The use is “transformative;” i.e., your video is a separate and distinct work from the material you’re using. In   other words, uploading a music video is copyright violation. Videotaping your 2-year-old dancing to a Prince song is not.*

• The use does not damage or dilute the marketability of the original work; i.e., people would still buy the song after watching your video.

Keep in mind, I’m not a lawyer; but I wouldn’t worry too much about the lawyers breaking down your door if you use copyrighted material in your own videos. But when in doubt, check it out.
