    As far as I know, there isn't one, but there are a few things that you can do to help yourself and give you the best shot at keeping videos that will stick around for a while:

    Stay clear of videos made by 3rd parties that use copy right material. IOW, some girl dancing in her living room to popular music..those almost always get pulled.

    If you are posting music videos, try and find the ones that are posted by the artist, or their record company.

    Videos recorded off of T.V, or really bad quality of popular music and movies and mostly done by others, those get yanked a lot too.

    Use different platforms. You Tube is not the only game in town. Vimeo has better quality music videos and a lot of artists are using them now.

    Unfortunately, you have to keep up on your blog to make sure everything is working when you use 3rd party material.

    If anyone knows of a plug in, or web check for this I would be interested too.
