Guys, You need to be aware:
1. TF1 (French Eurosport) is also flagging videos. I had a 2007 Four Continents British Eurosport vid hit for copyright on youtube by them.
2. A lot of music companies are having vids deleted for copyright infringement on songs.
If USFS wrongly hits one of your videos, the easiest way to get it replaced is:
1. Do not delete the vid stub. Copy down the URL.
2. Go to the USFS website and pick the Contact option. Explain to them that the competition was not one to which NBC or IceNetwork had rights. Include the URL in the letter. They will send a notification to youtube to put the video back up.
3. Even if you panicked and deleted the vid without copying down the URL, it's worth sending the letter, because then your second strike will not result in having your account taken down.
4. If you account is taken down, just start it up again under a new name. tripleaxel and loveskating are on about their 3rd iteration.
If you can get through the Russian part of it, you might try using rutube:
