Apparently Universal Music Group (the biggest record company in the world, mind you) is a bit peeved that MySpace and YouTube are infringing copyright on their artists "by allowing users to post music videos and other content involving Universal artists" (according to the Yahoo Music article linked). I have a few points I'd like to make, mainly concerning YouTube, since I don't normaly use MySpace.

Okay:

Point the First: Streamed Videos )

Point the Second: UMG as Distribution Giant )

Point the Third: Rarities, Out of Print, and Unavailable in the US )

Point the Fourth (and the Most Important): Who's seeing most of the check, anyway? )

Oh, and added to the fact--  )

So yeah. You could say I'm a bit miffed about all of this.
