Tuesday:  Well, MY OPINION is YouTube is part of a huge corporationm, and as long as they have what they have up there, we can link to it here.  We're not the ones with the problems.  They have a bank of lawyers working for them.

If it makes you feel any better, I heard the other day they had signed a deal with the British licensing organizations that collect royalties in that country.  They know they are hanging out, and I also heard they were workong on some deals in the U.S.  So, they're trying to make it right.  The Germans have filed suit against them for royalty infringement.  It seems the kitch thing to do right now.  I think Google can hold it's own.  If it was fearful of all this, it would either pull the infringing material, or shut down.  They have not done either.  And, this isn't the first time it has been an issue with them.  A lot of artists are putting things up there, because they realize the sales it brings in.  So, everybody is benefitting here, it's just the huge record companies and super-rich talent are trying to get a little MORE than the sales a posting on YouTube brings in.
