Red Lasso Legal Action

Unfortunately it looks like videos will be even more difficult to come by this week, and possibly through the remainder of the SYTYCD season! Red Lasso has suspended service due to legal actions being taken against them by a couple of networks. Red Lasso was an amazing resource for us bloggers to gain access to clips from TV shows in a FAST and efficient way. Here's the release from Red Lasso to it members:

To Our Loyal Users:

We would like to thank you for your continued support of Redlasso. You have been essential to making Redlasso a household name online. Unfortunately, due to the legal actions taken against Redlasso by two networks, we are left with no alternative but to suspend access to our video search and clipping Beta site FOR THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE. The networks have provided a big blow to the blogger community’s right to exercise the first amendment and comment on newsworthy events. It is anti-Web. During this service suspension, we will continue our conversations with content providers, with the goal of establishing formal partnerships that will quickly help us restore access to the Beta site.

For our business and Radio To Web clients, Redlasso will continue to operate and provide those services to you without interruption.

Again, thank you.
