In posting a recommendation of a product, (the video) in this case an online video there is a certain legal context.. In actuality I'm just being silly there in that I interact with these folks through other channels where they were also promoting their video, and the "disclaimer" is more of a tease than a legal statement. :) I read your blog too back in October and you did a great job with that. There is a lot of controversy over image use. Personally I've got a bunch of photos out floating around the web that people have lifted for their own device. The stickler there is in who has vested interest in the product. To review a product you may use the producer's image..but can you use a 3rd party photographers image of that product? There things get messy. Hey,

The Copyright Act allows the use of images if in context with review, criticism or comparison. Are you not under any of those clauses?
