I sometimes see German translations of novels that say:
'Aus dem Amerikanischen von Tom Jones' (continuing a theme)
which is
[Translated] from 'American' by Tom Jones
cranioscopical:
Oh - of course if the song belonged to his family it then would be the Joneses' song. ;)

Innuendo:
hat's exactly what it is ... business. They have to get enough funding to keep it going to air the sci-fi stuff that we do like. ECW brings in a lot of money. Would you rather they took the high road, then went out of business, and we have no outlet for that stuff?-wraith808

While I might agree with you if SciFi Channel were its own free-standing entity, but they are a wholly-owned subsidiary of NBC. For some reason I really don't think SciFi airing ECW is what is keeping them afloat.
But this is all a moot point anyway. Soon SciFi is going to be ScyFy (sic). Then we are going to see all the great science-fiction programming slowly erode away.

You should be able to get around the country restriction. All you need to do is look at the YouTube URL in the address bar and replace the string: /watch?v= with this one: /v/
Example:
Original link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHbSMZKvqUk&feature=featured
Hacked link - http://www.youtube.com/v/WHbSMZKvqUk&feature=featured
