Vimeo removes "One" rendition by request
This morning, I'd posted an update to this post about how the Vimeo version of the Bank of America / MBNA "One" video had been taken down, and that I'd reached out to Vimeo to find out what happened.
When asked if the company had asked Vimeo to remove the video from its site, Zach Klein, GM at Vimeo, responded affirmatively, saying that "they asked us to take it down citing copyright protection since they produced the clip internally for company-use only." Additionally, he mentioned that Vimeo allows its users to download the original version of the file that was uploaded [ahem, YouTube (thanks, Chris!)], so that's most likely how the high res version has made its way around, including to E!'s The Soup.
