When you have a group of engineers and designers, they are not exactly the best to deal with copyright law.

YouTube is committed to balancing the needs of the fan community with those of copyright holders.

Running helped me learn how to deal with failure, and failure is a big part of the Internet business.

Copyright law has got to give up its obsession with 'the copy.' The law should not regulate 'copies' or 'modern reproductions' on their own. It should instead regulate uses--like public distributions of copies of copyrighted work--that connect directly to the economic incentive copyright law was intended to foster.

No matter what industry you're in, there will be naysayers. So you have to be your own champion.

If something excites you, go for it.
