youtube .vs kazaa
 

can someone explain me the difference ? ?



they both offer / offered free copyrighted material

only difference I can find is that kazaa you had to WAIT to watch because of the slow downloads with youtube now you can watch whatever it is you want to watch almost instantly :1orglaugh

this is true.....

agree with the above

Kazzaa is a filesharing (p2p) programm. You can download files from other users with it.

YouTube offers streaming videos, which got uploaded to their server.
So the content of YouTube is physically based on the YouTube server while the content of kazaa is based on its users hard disc´s.

Its like comparing a ferrari with some toilet paper. So can somebody tell me the difference please?

If youtube contains copyrightet material why are producers not taking legal actions ?

agree with you

You can't find EVERYThahaha201;HIG on youtube ... it'S really not the same if you ask me.

In Kazaa the files are stored on users computers.

In youtube they are stores on youtubes server

doesnt that make it even more illegal ?

ok, let me translate the original post from English to English - Kazaa and YouTube both offer copyrighted movies (music videos etc), why's everybody (read officials, music industry, movie industry etc) bitching about Kazaa but most of them consider YouTube to be a very cool site????

youtube sucks

Course kazaa is A FILESHARING PROGRAM which contains 99% pirated material - and thats what it was build for.

YouTube isnt build for pirated stuff! Its like myspace in a different kind of view. Its the same if you post a copyrighted picture on myspace and if you post a copyrighted clip on youtube. Both cant do shit about it course they cant recruit a little country for checking every upload by hand. I think you still dont know what those sites were build for or whats the main idea of them.

youtube makes money, kazaa doesn't make money....

Kazaa is also super infested with spyware

downloading from Kazaa is like having sex without a condom : You never know what you're gonna catch

pretty tough to get infected downloading a movie clip :error

Easier than you'd think :error

i've seen them just hide extensions for example: movie.wmv.exe. But of course you dont see the .exe and also of surfers dont know how to make the file extensions visible.

Totally different....

for me i love using youtube for videos but somehow i also love using kazaa for mp3 and smallville :thumbsup

yes and myspace did not just infect a million of its userbase with some malicious software

You're right - they didn't. Their 3rd party advertising network did. Happened on a LOT of sites - MySpace is just the biggest, so it makes "better news".

No no you are missing the whole point. "K" and "Y" are COMPLETELY different letters of the alphabet....COMPLETELY. :2 cents:

They are. Constantly. YouTube honors the requests, so you never hear about it, with the exception of when some idiot press releases their C&D or DMCA actions.

alot of people use youtube to promote their shit... just the other day, i saw a video that was uploaded by hollywood records to promote an up and coming band
