ICC and YouTube Video Clips

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has asked Google owned YouTube to remove all World Cup clips claiming copyright infringement. "We are here to protect the commercial broadcast rights for the ICC and GCC and there is an issue here," Christopher Stokes, chief executive - online rights protection agency 'NetResult', which represents the ICC told to a reporters.

Now, following this if YouTube actually deletes the WC2007 video files, there will be a huge dissappointment in the cricket fan world as they will not have an easy access to the missed magical moments of the world cup.

Also, taking this further, if the online video hub removes all the cricket, soccer, and other clips involving copyright infringement, it would sadden the regular layman youtubeists as they will not be able to broadcast their tastes on the events with such a mass.
