uTube sues YouTube

November 3rd, 2006

The small company Universal Tube, a maker of tube manufacturing machines is suing the Google owned, video sharing portal YouTube.com, for using a similar name. Universal Tube wants YouTube.com to change its name, because the massive amount of 68 million hits, they recieved during August, from people who misspelled youtube, forced their server to knees several times. YouTube made no offers, for the in 1996 registered, domain name uTube.com so far.

    Hey guys,
    I have an iMac G5 running tiger 10.4.7 and I an having a wierd problem. Whenever I go to a site that has an embedded youtube, flash or some kind of video, there is no sound. If it a quicktime file there is no problem. There is not sound no matter what broswer I use, firefox, camino, safari, or shiira. And keep in mind that about a week ago I was not having this issue.

    Help Would be awesome
    Thanks!
