YouTube will soon have more shows to be featured on the site. This is after the largest video sharing website signed another deal with Freemantel Media.

Freemantel Media is the producer of the world famous American Idol and other TV entertainment titles. The company currently holds some top rating shows. The deal will allow YouTube to publish original and with copyright videos by Freemantle, under a deal of course that Freemantle will get revenue from the videos.

This move is also under the hopes that piracy and unmediated uploading of Freemantle videos will be minimized. The deal will use YouTube’s VideoID anti-piracy technology, an anti copyright infringement system which fingerprints video to weed out illegal copies of copyrighted content.

The new deal will add videos and show to the already publicized programs suchy as Hole in the Wall (Australia) and X Factor 2007, as well as original web programming like ToyBoize and Atomic Wedgie.
