While it can be argued that content wouldn't be on YouTube if it weren't meant to be shared, the movie Arthus and I have posted is clearly an infringement of copyright. Or is it?

• If a video is on YouTube, does that mean that it is now fair game for posting on a blog?
• Does it matter if the content of your post is educational?
• Does it matter if the original video (the BBC interview, for example) doesn't specify copyright restrictions? Here's a hint, if you're interested in my opinion.

HUGE can of worms here, I know. Hall, lay down the law for us, would you please?
