Once again, the way copyrights can be blindly applied ruined something on the Internet. Namely Dragon Ball Z the Abridged Series, with half of its episodes, more or less, retired for copyrights issues by Toei Animation.
After all, it's not like they put a disclaimer for being a parody, named all the rightful owners and ended every disclaimer of every episode with "Please suport the official release"... Oh, wait.
Ducking day.
The announcement on YouTube doesn't make it sound too dire, though. They ought to have a solid Fair Use defense, so there's no reason at all this should stick. Anyway, like they said, there's still their website.
~Neshomeh, who actually went and watched all the DBZ they had on Hulu Plus thanks to DBZA. Yes, totally stealing their business, absolutely...

You know it's sad, when you see Lord Popo cry.
Abridged!Popo, though... Toei animation wish they would just die.
