Unmetered Request and a Question

[shaker12]

Hello. I am creating a web-app for iOS that requires me to upload videos on to my server. I believe I have met the requirements as I have been using this account for several other purposes as well as testing the app.

I made this account quite some time ago and would like to propose to upgrade my account to unmetered disk usage. I am looking forward to test a few things and then possibly buy the premium package.

Thank you for your consideration!

PS. I want to inform and kind of inquire about the videos as they are of a channel from Pakistan (my country) and I originally looked at an app in the appstore for the iOS that is labeled "Azizi App". This urged me to create a better but web-app (hosted on x10's server or x10Premium). I would like to say that I couldn't find anything in their show warning about copyrighting their videos and their videos are downloaded from youtube (their own channel dunyanews1). This graduates my thoughts to thinking that this is fine by them. The videos weren't monetized therefore it cannot mean they had any copyright warnings. I also tried to contact them but there was no reply from them. And the app in the app store has been there for sometime just hasn't been updated and I just took the guts to go forward and make an entirely web-based app, once again, hosted on x10.

So please let me know if it is an issue with you. IF dunya news contacts me personally or through my contact page of the app asking to remove the app or anything in that regards, I will not hesitate to remove the videos off of x10's servers and well look for another way to do something creative to use the space provided. And if the bandwidth isn't offered as unmetered for Free Users then I won't back down from buying the premium hosting.


Thank you.

Copyright works exactly the opposite way: unless you have an EXPLICIT license (such as Creative Commons, MIT, GPL, or plain-language words granting similar usage rights) you must assume the work is protected. Copyright exists from the moment of creation; it does not require any notification at all. (And registration of copyright is only necessary in the USA if the copyright owner wishes to sue for monetary damages; it has no bearing on legal limitations on usage of the work.)

YouTube's TOS would allow you to link to the videos on YouTube to your heart's content; you are explicitly NOT allowed to download and redistribute videos. (It is technically possible, of course -- even easy -- and the video owner may explicitly allow redistribution on a video-by-video basis, but it's against YouTube's rules.) You would need an awful lot of YouTube links or embeds to run into hosting space problems.

Uploading videos (or any other media) to your site that you didn't create and do not have license to use would be a violation of x10Hosting's terms of service (zero tolerance). So would be uploading more than 1GB of video that you DO have permission to use (you would ordinarily be given time to correct that if it's not too bad).

I agree with you 100% but there is no license/warning against copyright issues given by the original maker of the video. I have contacted them so many times with no reply (got e-mail from their website)...

But its okay. I have already started the embedding process. I was just looking forward to buying x10Premium (which I will soon) but not right now as I can host videos elsewhere.
Thank you for your consideration and reply. Greatly appreciated.

Again, copyright protection is assumed; nobody has to post a warning/notice ever. If they want you to share, there will be license information or a declaration that the work has been put into the public domain posted somewhere (either alongside the work, on the page footer or in the site FAQ).
