There really wasn't like him on youtube, he was the only person that uploaded videos from every single dub.

Toei had a temper tantrum and did a massive, inefficient sweep of YouTube that took down a bunch of comparisons, parodies, etc. while leaving full episodes and such intact. That's what happened.

Oh really?
That's our Toei, always getting things right.

Last I checked, Gokuden's channel was still up too.

Team Four Star's account is suspended as well. I tried going on "That Guy With The Glasses" because he has a link for them on his site, but it took me to YouTube, where the account is suspended.

Team Four Star? REALLLY?
That's just not right. Maybe they're jealous.

Aren't parodies protected from copyright infringement?

In the US they are, but not in Japan.

Yeah, he's kei17 here, and he's only posted a few times since April [size=0]and he still owes me a Jump Special DVD! ;([/size].

But YouTube isn't a Japanese site... It would be like some Japanese police coming to America and arresting Americans for breaking Japanese laws in America.

Whew! I downloaded all the DBZ Abridged videos a couple days ago. Hooray for foresight! I didn't get Dead Zone or World's Strongest Abridged, though. I hope they're still up. Just a second.

...

Good, still there. I'm downloading now just to be safe, though. Too bad they never got around to Tree of Might like they said they would. After World's Strongest, they formed TFS and focused on the series.

Maybe it doesn't constitute parody privilege if you're actually using footage from the original show.
Still though, a bad move on TOEI's part. All it's gonna do is piss off the fans, and, if anything, DBZ Abridged would have helped promote the series.

What!? I loved his videos, they were very insightful..
Fucking Toei..

This is extremely silly considering the money Dragonball pulls on a global scale. Maybe they need to go after those illegally subbing One Piece.

Bans have never stopped the awful irritant STD known as Gokuden.

Well, the guy who put up the HD redubbed episodes up to the Ginyu Saga got taken down, but there's still full eps up so that was really pointless.

So I won't get to listen to Ghost Nappa anymore??

Well, that just made my day. First, I get the horrible news of Team Four Star being shut down, and now, I won't get to listen to the awesomeness that is Ghost Nappa!

EDIT: Wait, isn't that song still on Daizenshuu EX's homepage?

*Goes and checks* Phew, it's still there.

Not only is YouTube a US site, not Japanese, but as far as I can see, parodies are legally protected in Japan. That's why doujinshi and cosplay porn always refer to themselves as "parodies". If there is any justification behind this, it's probably what Kroni_Hunter said.

The stupid thing is, some other guy has been hosting all the eps for around the last 9 months and they're still there:
