So I was going through some of my Subscribed channels on Youtube when I found out that WatchMojo's channel has been taken down:

http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaWd5_7JhbQBe4dknZhsHJg

For anyone who doesn't know, WatchMojo used to do top ten lists of movies, games, music, etc.
They would have lists like; Top Ten Goriest Deaths, Top ten anti-heros, Top Ten SNES games and so on.

They also used to do Superhero and Supervillian origins, which were short segments on the origins of various comic book characters. I liked WatchMojo because they'd often mention a movies, games, television shows, song that I hadn't heard of before, which I would usually go and track down.

I guess my question is, have you noticed that any channels that you were subscribed to are no longer allowed due to the new Youtube crackdown, also does anyone here post stuff up on youtube that you've recently had taken down?

Also as a side note, I think it is rather hilarious that something like WatchMojo gets taken down, but a bunch of channels I'm subscribed to are all still around, and they all contain full movies.


***EDIT***
Ok WatchMojo is back again now. I'm surprised at how it managed to come back up again so quick though. From what I've heard it takes weeks to get a ruling looked at even for one video, let alone having your whole channel shut down. Especially if you've been served with violations from multiple copyright holders. You'd think you would have to go through each individual claim.

You can't exactly be surprised since 90% of their material is other people's.
They continued to make videos while they were down because I watched one ten minutes ago so idk.

Yeah, you know how the world's taking a shit on Microsoft because of their bad OSs tablets, and console? Well, all the people involved there are taking their fiber tablets and leaving big stinky piles in Youtube's face as well. This is the age of people getting tired of bullshit. Seriously, fucking with anything media right now is like suicide, professionally.

Shame. God knows how many hours I wasted watching their top ten list. Their video game stuff kinda sucked, but their movie stuff was top notch. (by youtube standards)
