    Anyone have a problem with using a script like ClipHunter

    ClipHunter.com find a loophole?

    Anyone see any legal issues with using a script that is on ClipHunter.

    I know many of you don't like it, but is there anything legally wrong with it?

    Google has a search tool for videos. Google "scrapes" videos and allows users to view them from their site listing the contents source (youtube, metacafe etc..).

    That "Scraping Videos" idea that google puts into play is being used on adult websites. The ClipHunter script follows the same theory by listing the source (youporn, pornhub etc..).

    At this time it seems safe to use "Scraping Video" scripts.

    Please let me know your thoughts.

      Nothing illegal about it. But it isn't very smart for making money. Not sure what they are getting out of that these days. Most folks have cut their advertising budgets to the bone so they don't have many people to sell that useless traffic to. And it damn sure ain't gonna make any sales for them.

        Hey Rob, Thanks for reply.

        At the moment, I would agree that the conversion ratio from the traffic is not good. It was well known that Google bought YouTube for well over a billion and the traffic was not turning a profit. The speculation is the future is tube.
