But if I pay more for my hotel rooms, doesn't that mean I won't have any bedbugs?

It always amuses me whenever someone uploads a video to a place that's not YouTube. Do they honestly think they're more "safe" because it isn't as popular? Do they think they're fostering some sort of "underground/subversive" movement?

Honestly, there might be more to that line of thought than you believe. At least the "safe because it isn't as popular" part. I routinely see things on Dailymotion that wouldn't last an hour on YouTube. Aggressive copyright defenders are going to go looking in those places too, but not everybody is equally aggressive, and it's simply true that YouTube's standards are more restrictive than other sites.

Dailymotion, Veoh, and Vimeo apparently are the three biggest video sharing sites for people who get dinged for copyright on YouTube- at least if my observations have told me anything. Although I think at least Veoh is starting to get a little more vigilant with stuff like that (or is it Vimeo? not sure).
