YouTube promises copyright filters by September.

Since last year, Youtube has received hundreds of thousands of take down requests from content providers and royalty groups. The largest of those is the 100,000 video take down request from Viacom that later evolved into a $1bn lawsuit. So they are now showing their seriousness to built up copyright filters on the world's largest video sharing website.

According to the Associated Press, Youtube attorney Philip S. Beck told a New York court that the system would be in place "hopefully in September".

The system would reportedly use digital fingerprinting technology to compare user-submitted videos to copyrighted materials and filter out violations.

The giant Youtube competitor Soapbox on MSN by Microsoft has already put finger-printing on their website.
