i believe it. i had a link sent to me a few days ago from a recent SNL. purportedly the video had just been posted. i tried to go to it yesterday and it was taken offline at the networks request. what do they think im going to do, stay home on a saturday night for a future rerun, or buy a dvd in 2 years? 0 for 2. if anything id think it would encourage people to watch their shows... which, frankly, they might just not want to discourage with their present ratings.
yeah im off the soapbox.
According to the New York Times, NBC Universal employs 3 full time employees to scour youtube for copyrighted material. That is interesting on many levels.
