Dear Video Bloggers,

Please let me apologize for any confusion and distress Veoh's
broadcasting of unclaimed RSS feeds has caused. It was in no way
deliberate.

I would like to thank you for your passion, your harsh constructive
criticism, and your patience while we continue to strive to make Veoh
a service that can dramatically impact the video blogging, and
television worlds. For those of you who have expressed support and a
desire to work with us, I look forward to meeting you and working
together.

As I have stated in previous messages, Veoh's intent has never been to
be a place where publisher's rights are violated. It is our intent to
provide an open service where content publishers can easily publish
their video and deliver it to the world without the restrictions of
traditional broadcast mediums. We are the greatest fans of user
created video content, and believe that it is this revolution that
will change the world that we live in.

In the latest releases we have made the RSS submission process more
secure by making it a one step process rather than accepting Unclaimed
Feeds and waiting for users to claim them. We believe this will
prevent anything like this from happening again.

Since Friday, our entire team has been dealing with the situation,
responding to individual requests for removal and working on new
features to specifically address concerns raised by the group. We
should have been proactively addressing these issues over the last
month of our web beta, but unfortunately the pace of startup life got
in the way.

As a result of that analysis, we have made a decision to remove any
videos published via an RSS feed that have not specifically been
claimed by the feed owner. If you have published your feed to Veoh,
but have not been able to claim it yet, it has been removed, and we
ask you to please republish it. We apologize for the inconvenience,
but there was no other way to clean the database.

We are continuing to improve the presentation of RSS published video
series; including clear link-back to the originating site,
attribution, and other elements requested by many of you who indicated
you would like to see Veoh continue to provide an alternate
distribution channel for your content. These modifications will be
released later this week.

We are forming a video blogging advisory group of 5 to 10 people that
will help guide our development efforts, participate in beta testing,
and help us be better citizens of the video blogging world. Some of
you have already written us about it and we look forward to meeting
with you. If you would like to participate, please email dshapiro at
veoh dot com.

Thank you for your understanding, support, passion, and contribution
to the revolution. With such passion behind us, we are bound to make
a difference.

If you will allow us to be your sponsors at VloggerCon 2006, we would
truly be honored to meet all of you.

Sincerely,

Dmitry Shapiro
CEO
Veoh Networks, Inc.
