about the second point, I don't know. if the material is altered in such a manner that it really bears no resemblance to the original material, then I suppose the content owner would not feel threatened by it
About the first, I disagree! youtube is very quick to remove any adult content from...

I was wondering if anyone can tell me whether there are any non-gaming industry uses for the Ageia Physx chip?
For example, manufacturing companies use GPUs for 3D CAD/CAM modeling....so I was wondering if there are business uses for a PPU.
