MSN Soapbox goes public again, now with copyright filtering
Microsoft's video sharing site is back up and running. Just over a month after opening Soapbox up to the public, Microsoft returned the site to private beta status in March.
Over the last few months, Microsoft put a system in place allowing copyright holders to find and remove videos that have been uploaded without their permission. This comes at a time when YouTube faces several high profile and expensive lawsuits over copyright violations by its users.
Soapbox is now using digital-fingerprinting technology from Audible Magic to discover copyrighted content.

The link is actually:
http://soapbox.msn.com
Curiously, the people behind The Motley Fool own soapbox.com (which dooms the site in the first place, if they don't own their own .com).
