    Maybe not anymore. Isnt Youtube getting sued for hosting copyrighted material?

    Koli, maybe you can try using online proxies. These will hide your "true" location and show a false one. However, most proxies will probably not handle high bandwidth sites (since their servers will be utilized too). You can try giving it a shot anyway.

    Keep it simple. Keep it real.

    Well yes! Ref: Judge Protects YouTube’s Source Code, Throws Users To The Wolves

    I believe Google folks will take some time to remove the content . Don't know how are they going to do that!

    I never tried youtube, but I dont think youtube will have that kind of quality. I shall try there. I never knew that youtube can host such a large size video.

    You are right Ash - it needs heavy bandwidth for continuously streaming. Any recommendations on the proxy ? Ash - can you try and see if you can access it from your country.

    I want to know if this works in any other country, may be from UK, canada... (hoping that ABC is at least allowing these countries)
