> No, we just get the video and search the web based on the keywords.

So you're not indexing every video, you can only find videos that share some keywords with the original. If I had a video with no keywords it wouldn't show up even if it was an exact copy?

How many videos will you analyze per search? If it's something with popular keywords and shows a million videos, will you download all of those and compare?

ikeboy: At this stage we are not indexing to control server costs. However, our goal is to have all videos indexed to reduce the searching time. We are searching the web based on keywords to reduce the searching space.
