As many you may have heard, YouTube has made changes to the way to handles copyrighted content is user videos.

Here is a excerpt from the post which details the new system:
- When you receive a notice in your account via Content ID, we tell you who claimed the content, and direct you to a form that lets you dispute the claim if you so choose.
- If you believe your video is fair use, check the box that reads "This video uses copyrighted material in a manner that does not require approval of the copyright holder." If you're not sure if your video qualifies, you can learn more about fair use here.
- Once you've filed your dispute, your video immediately goes back up on YouTube.
- From this point, the claimant then makes a decision about whether to file a formal DMCA notification, and remove the content from the site according to the process set forth in the DMCA.
So what do you feel?
Surely this is a positive step, however is this enough? Or does more need to be done to preserve the freedom of the content creators?
