It has not been approved yet by retrojunk, but hopefully it will soon. Here's a little taste of what's to come:
"When I posted the entire two-part episode of The Simpsons “Who Shot Mr. Burns” on youtube.com last fall, I did not feel easy about it from the beginning. After all, I was violating copyright laws, and had an inkling that I would be caught in the crosshairs of 20th Century Fox, the rightful owner of the show."
"A month after the Google acquisition, I had a "Fox Scare", meaning I had received some intimidating emails from 20th Century Fox informing me of the copyright violation on youtube. They would have threatened to take legal action against me had I not done anything about it.
Although the other copyrighted material I had on my account was not deleted, I got rid of it all anyways to eliminate myself from lawsuits from major corporations like Viacom and 20th Century Fox. Youtube had already begun to crack down on copyright infringement, and in February of this year, over 100,000 videos of material owned by Viacom were removed from the website."
The rest of article is titled "Fox Scare". It should be out soon.
