Today I finished my [B]25,5 minute long Gmod machinima[/B] which I worked on 4,5 months. It is supposed to be [B]released on monday[/B]. I decided to render a small video file with only the music in it to upload it onto YouTube and see whether it gets blocked or not.
"Everything's gonna be fine" I thought, because I am [B]allowed to upload videos longer than 15 minutes[/B] since a few weeks. I found out it was [B]only temporary[/B] and now I have to split my videos again which makes no sense since you have 2GB available in both cases. Why am I not allowed to use it as I want to? I'm pretty sure money is involved as always. It's like showing commercials in the middle of a movie in a cinema.
So I split this small file and uploaded two parts ... to find out that [B]three fucking music groups claim the classic music inside[/B] (of which some are covers). And now I'm raging like hell!
I don't know what to do. I could move to [B]another site[/B] but then there would be [B]no community[/B] as big as at YouTube. Also [B]I couldn't use features like subtitles or annotations[/B] (I planned to hide 17 links to other videos + links to the channels of the voice actors via annotations).
If I stay [B]at YouTube[/B] my video will be [B]not available in Germany[/B] (where I live at) and it would be raped by [B]ads and shit[/B]. What do?
Upload it to something like Blip.tv and have a small "Watch the video here" trailer on Youtube. Have your annotation-y things in the description instead. Also, I think some other sites do subtitles.
Mountain Do.
