When embedded videos become non-embeddable, are they dead?
Hi!
In the past, I noticed some embeddeded videos get flagged as dead but they are still playable in YouTube and not in VS (and other web sites). Example: http://videosift.com/video/Steve-Wozniak-Woz-on-The-Big-Bang-Theory ... Video still works on YouTube.
Would this considered be dead? I don't think so since it still works if played on YouTube (it even tells you that).
What do you think? Thank you in advance.

HybridI actually mark these as dead but say why e.g. "dead - embedding disabled". If a video can't be viewed on the sift, then it is dead... dead is a videosift term in that respect.
antIf they still work on YouTube, then they shouldn't be dead IMO.
gwiz665They're dead on this site. You can note the youtube link in the comment, but it's still dead on videosift.
SagemindIf the embed doesn't work - it's dead.
Find a new embed that works and it will no longer be dead.
paul4dirtdead on videosift = dead. it's not a link site.
