(n.) copyrighted digital content that has been illegally obtained from the internet and then re-uploaded without the consent of the copyright owner.

(v.) the act of illegally downloading copyrighted digital content and re-uploading it to the internet without the consent of the copyright owner.

While similar to file sharing, a ripload is often uploaded for online consumption, rather than download; sometimes under the pretense of appearing as the original creator.
This guy is posing as the creator of the video, but it's clearly a ripload, it even has the original creator's logo on it.

Why would someone ripload to Youtube? Just link to the original, it's easier (and more legal) than using KeepVid or some SWF decompiler and then re-uploading it to their own account.

What's really surprising about Youtube is the amount of riploaded movie and television clips running ads. Who's approving these obvious riploads?

The five thriller novels by American author Patricia (STRANGERS ON A TRAIN, THE PRICE OF SALT) Highsmith (d. 1995) that have the amoral but sympathetic Thomas Ripley as their hero.

These books are: The Talented Mr. Ripley (1955), Ripley Under Ground (1970), Ripley's Game (1974), The Boy Who Followed Ripley (1980) and Ripley Under Water (1991). It is alleged that Ms. Highsmith coined the self-effacing and jocular term "Ripliad" herself, although when an anthology of the first three of these novels was published by Everyman's Library in 1998, critics used the term "Ripliad" to refer to those specific three. (In 2011 the Folio Society of London brought out its own three-volume boxed set of exactly the same novels.) However, the first boxed set of all five Ripley novels did not appear until 2008 (THE COMPLETE RIPLEY NOVELS); to them, the term "Ripliad" also applies.
"The one box set I would love Folio Society to put out would be the complete Ripliad by Patricia Highsmith. Probably my favourite author of all time..."

1. Billy hate drafted Chad OchoCinco because he knew Sam had wanted him since he is from Cincinnati. Billy already had plenty of players to fill that position but wanted to make sure Sam didn't get him.

2. Billy hate drafted Peyton Manning because he was the only good quarterback left and he knew Sam had been planning on drafting him.
