One has to be very careful about where one uploads content to nowadays. 
Increasingly websites are adding T&C or TOS to uploads which not only 
give them rights to use the material on their own site or for the 
purposes for which it was uploaded, by that are also claiming rights to 
reuse the material and sub license it commercially.
