Account Deleted on Veoh

I received an email from veoh, notifying me that my account, and 600+ videos, have been deleted. This is after me, and others like me, have made the service a popular alternative to YouTube. Funny thing is ... while my account was deleted for posting a Family Guy clip, if you search veoh, you'll find many, many more Family Guy clips there.

veoh's fuck you note:
