    If the site allows user-generated content, it will quickly have to contend with the "problem of crap" that Youtube faces (http://www.businessinsider.com/is-youtube-doome...). In short, the user generated crap which dominates the system costs money to host and serve, but doesn't offer much of a return in monetization. But it seems to me that this is just the problem of too much crap on a lot of these "social network" driven websites where sorting for quality hasn't been well thought out.

    Pay to view videos, which were once considered marketing tools by the record companies, this is what this stupid deal means.

    Irony: record companies CHARGED the artist for the cost of the video by calling this expense marketing. The artist will pay TWICE, because they will pay for the video that is being used on youTube and NOT get paid for the revenue it generates.

    I hope the people at Google read this and realize all that they are doing is perpetuating the marginalization of artists by letting the record labels into their technology.
