I was hit by Youtube when I uploaded Daley Thompson's Star Events in video form, they did what Csabo said. In short TED does such a good job of Chariots of Fire that YouTube now take money from the advert they added to it with that just in case attitude...
It makes you wonder, did Ocean Software get permission to use it, I don't believe so. And I'm sure many software houses got away with stuff back in the 1980's. I wonder if Ocean's game Rambo on C64 was properly ligament with licensing payments? The later released Robocop gave the impression it was, then again the first release of the movie Robocop on Video Tape in the UK has an advert for the home computer game on it, being C64, Amstrad, Spectrum ect... from Ocean! I still have the Video tape and is about 1 of 5 or 6 I've actually kept lol.
