MySpace launched a video filtering system

The technology MySpace uses will be provided by Audible Magic. This is a system that can scan images in clips, search for signs such as digital signatures . and compare with data stored in the database. If a copyright infringement is detected, the video will be blocked from appearing on MySpace.

Prior to this video filtering system, MySpace also deployed a similar tool, but was intended to prevent uploads of copyright infringement.

In the first phase, Universal Music's "music" content clips will be removed first by MySpace. " MySpace wants to make sure that artists, big and small, can promote and protect their content in front of the community, " said Chris DeWolfe, MySpace co-founder and CEO.

Posting a delightful video is one of MySpace's most appealing features, and it is also a "turning point" for the company to encourage its members to expand their network of friends, share interests and common interests. .

MySpace and video-sharing websites such as YouTube have long had a policy of removing copyright infringement clips, but often they only give up when they receive complaints from copyright owners.

On the other hand, just a few hours later, using another account (free registration), users were able to post the video clip back to MySpace without any hindrance.

But if Audible Magic's technology works as promised, MySpace will be able to end the situation.

Last November, Universal Music filed a lawsuit, accusing MySpace of encouraging its members to share digital music and videos on the site without permission. The lawsuit is still pending, but Universal demands MySpace to pay $ 150,000 for each song or unauthorized music clip that appears on the site.
