Law and Order When her 0.29" family video was taken down by YouTube on the request of Universal MPG, the affected mother of two struck back with a lawsuit against Universal with the help of the EFF. While technically her family video might have been a copyright infringement as she had no license to include Prince's song as a background score, it is encouraging to see the public fighting back against restrictive laws that get in the way of their every day lives. My Take: I stated my own opinion on the matter on my personal blog.

"""

If my videos are smaller than .29 inches, they won't take them down?

No, silly. The double quote means "seconds". If your video is less than 0.29 seconds then you might not get a cease and desist. Talk a bout a hair trigger!
