[YouTube-API] Re: Drawing youtube video

Hello Jeffrey,

Well, it is a ToS issue. I understand your will to protect your
videos.

Although, I think it's a complete kink.

Why?
When I use a bitmapdata.draw() function, from a web server to a
youtube video, the youtube sandbox prevent me to copy the video.
But,when i'm running a local flash script (ie c:/flash.swf), Youtube
and its Sandbox isn't capable to bloc the draw() function. Then, in
local, i can easily copy all youtube video without any sandbox error.

Don't you find this stupid? Blocking access from clearly identified
web server, but let anonymous PC get youtube video with the draw
function. It should be the opposite, like Facebook does it.
