Google apologizes for YouTube TV outage, offers free week of credit

-
YouTube experienced a major outage last week that also affected subscription services YouTube TV and YouTube Music. YouTube and its associated services were down for nearly two hours before service was restored, and now Google is apologizing to affected YouTube TV subscribers by offering a free week of credit.
“We’re sorry about the unexpected YouTube TV interruption on October 16th,” says a note to subscribers. “We love our TV as much as you do, and our goal is to make sure that you can access your events and shows – whenever and however you want. To help make this right, we’d like to give you a week of free service.”
The credit note of $10 is only available to be claimed by 11:50PM PT on Wednesday October 24th, and subscribers will need to fill out a form that was emailed out to YouTube TV users this past weekend. This was the second time YouTube TV experienced a serious outage this year, after the service suffered interruptions during this summer’s World Cup games.

Meanwhile it is said the new copyright law will drive most of video creators away because of the high cost of copyright. I like YouTube but it won’t surprise me if it died. I am thinking that if YouTube is disconnected more and more or someday it is hacked, I need to have some alternatives to replace YouTube. So on that day,  here are the platforms you can use or visit. This list is based on real user reviews and does not contain any advertising c

-
Large numbers of Internet subscribers, mainly in the United States, have been taking to the Internet in recent months worried about piracy warnings sent to them by their ISPs. Meanwhile YouTubers in Europe are worried on the  new EU Copyright Article 13 which will effect on next Jan . Despite much discussion of these online, questions continue to be asked. So, what should users do when they receive these scary emails? Millions of Internet subscribers use their connections to download and share copyright-infringing content. It’s been going on for almost two decades already and shows no sign of stopping. We all knew and also experienced the crazy times of Torrent.  For the vast majority of users, this kind of activity has no consequences. People grab the latest movies or TV shows, for example, and then hear no more.
