    I have a question. would it be against like copyrights or something if I had a site like

    www.abctube.com or www.123tube.com and used the red box thing youtube uses so i would have a grafffic saying abc[tube] or 123[tube] for my logo. I don't want to purcahse either of the sites, nor are they mine, so go nuts if you want. I want it for another site.

    Tube is a legal word to use in any domain. Millions of logos look similar so the whole red box is also alright...
    I see no problems here

    1st you have to check who owns the rights for bla bla tube for example. If nobody owns them then you have the power to claim it. It's as simple as that.

    USB (Use Search Box). It's been discussed time and again.
