Can we use some video clips?

Question

I need some feedback on using video clips as url (youtube, my own or any reference) in articles. Is there any problem with this? Any legal or illegal issue? Maybe you will reply that when video url is dead, article will have no meaning or less meaning, right? Not a problem, I (we) will use own youtube account and videos for this.

Feedback please? Mahesh specially you?

I think as long as the YouTube video has Share option you are OK to do so because this is why that Share option is there. I would probably post a question to the video owner as well just in case.

So you are trying to post a video from YouTube in your article? I think it says Share on YouTube I guess that means you can post it anywhere. I am really not sure about legal issues and if you are allowed to do so.
