In layman's terms: if you post something, or discuss ways to watch or obtain something that you would normally have to pay for - that's a breach of the rule. The same goes for any other illegal content.
Quote:No illegal links - for example to torrent sites, warez etc. Do not discuss where or how to get illegal things. This includes streaming sites. It's one of very few things you can do that actually means the site can get shut down, so we're very stringent on this.
Daily Motion itself doesn't count, but posting a link to illegal content on it does. So, say someone managed to upload a copywrited movie to daily motion and you linked it. That would count as a breach of the rules.
If someone managed to get something illegal uploaded on YouTube and you linked it, that would also count. Unless the site itself is for illegal streaming (which YouTube and Daily Motion aren't), you're good. So you can discuss about YouTube and Daily Motion, and link stuff from them, as long as the content you link or discuss isn't illegal.
If you're not sure if something is illegal or not, Google it and err on the side of caution.
Buuut at the same time, you could claim that that would make threads like "What choo jam to" a grey area, given technically, I doubt many of the songs in youtube are there exactly "legally", so, I'd say common sense prevails here, otherwise we're never linking anything again.
