About requests to upload films in their entirety:
Don't bother asking.
It is not a matter of taking credit away from these animation studios, that is the lesser evil of the copyright infringement. The serious evil is that by sharing these films, viewers are not paying to have access for them (as opposed to when purchasing VHS or DVD copies of the films) and thus, the studios are not making a profit for their work. Studios need to make money in order to keep these films 'alive' on the market; otherwise, they'll go bankrupt and we can eventually kiss all of these movies goodbye.
I don't want to see this happen, which is why I fully support YouTube when they remove videos after a copyright claim. If you can't afford to purchase a DVD copy of a film, you're NOT entitled to have it. Being poor doesn't give you the right to walk into a store and steal them blind, does it? The same thing applies for films.
