Hmm....
The thing that strikes me is that Viacom
http://www.viacom.com/ourbrands/Pages/default.aspx
is affiliated with Veoh (in the sense that Veoh broadcasts content from, for example, Viacom's MTV Networks - see http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/23/business/media/23veoh.html?ref=business)
More on Veoh Networks here:

Veoh is software that highly capable of facilitating copyright infringement - see -
http://news.cnet.com/A-new-copyright-battlefield-Veoh-Networks/2100-1026_3-6160860.html
I mean, with the Veoh software, you can very easily download ANY streaming video content with a browser plugin and either save it to your computer or share it on the veoh network.
Anyone know more about the relationship between Viacom and Veoh?? And how all of this relates to the Viacom vs. YouTube/Google scenario?
