Because it's the internet and nobody gives a shit, hence why it's the most broken "law" ever.KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

Instead of preventing people from listening to music, they should make it easier for us to get music we like legally. Some songs on YouTube have links to buy them on the Amazon and iTunes music stores. Some have advertisements for a few seconds at the bottom of the video. THAT's understandable. Muting a video or deleting all the videos with that song? Not understandable.
Scenario 1:
I hear of a band
I go to YouTube to find the band
I listen to their stuff, like it, and go buy their CD or download the song via iTunes
I become a diehard fan and go to their shows
Scenario 2:
I hear of a band
I go to YouTube to find the band
There are no videos with studio versions of their songs
I lose interest and they get no money from me, or I maintain interest and obtain the music illegally
Which do you think would be the more desirable scenario for these greedy pigs?
That's happened since the dawn of the internets though. All the companies are doing now is alienating those of us who still buy music.KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

You go to Youtube/songza/lala/pandora/last.fm to find the band
You listen, like it, and download from p2p and pay nothing.
Either way, record company gets no money.
Yes, the record companies need to think proactively and find creative ways to charge for content they own. That still doesn't excuse copyright infringement.

Yeah, that was my point. If I can find a band's music on YouTube to hear it, and I like it, then I'm more inclined to buy their shit. Don't assume that everybody's got loose morals and that nobody pays for music anymore.KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

"They don't have their music on youtube vids. That's it, I'm not buying another album from them!"
Really?

The people that founded youtube started it as a business. It was a natural progression that the inclusion of copyrighted content would be addressed in regards to youtube's business plan. If you failed to understand that natural progression and instead thought youtube was created so that you could look up music videos and watch Simpsons TV clips I don't feel sorry for you.FrankieSpankie3388 wrote:
Youtube sucked the day Google bought them out. Ever since Google bought them, they removed pretty much every single televsion clip ever. Now they're slowly weeding out every song on there. Now all that's left are the idiots who think that just because they have webcams, people want to listen to them. Other than that it's just trailers for stuff. So basically, now all youtube is, is advertisements and annoying people. It lost its appeal and is now like pretty much every other site.
So what you are saying is instead of sampling tracks on youtube we should download them for free? Well I don't know, having Lady gaga as a file is harder to delete than removing the cookies for the youtube search...KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

Internet (and youtube) changed media. It will take more than 1 year for record companies to adjust to the medium and create new revenue streams, so suck it up. People bitching because youtube deletes copyright, record companies bitch because people use unlicensed material. Both need to QQ.
Or send the youtube CEO a hooker.CrazeD wrote:

You can sample tracks at Amazon, Itunes, Lala, off a groups website, etc. All those are legitimate. What I'm saying is youtube wasn't created so 14 year-olds could watch music videos and Family Guy clips.andy12 wrote:
