I'm sure everyone who goes to YouTube may notice that any song that has a WMG license is guaranteed to be removed and the uploader may possibly get banned from YouTube.
Does anyone want to see those GH:M vids get removed the second they upload it?
What about the new music videos that is coming out by this record now that MTV and VH1 does nothing but reality garbage and not even one video played on those channels?
And finally, what about the cover vids that people perform on Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboard, or Vocals?
Any feedbacks on this would be appreciated. I just wish I can punch WMG in the face and low blow them to death for doing this action.

They're "protecting" their intellectual property.
I don't understand the pulling of the Guitar Hero/Rock Band videos though, that's just fucking dumb.

I don't think so. I think they're just getting increasingly paranoid.

The internet threatens profits all over the place, apparently. Some people complain that the money made from ads on sites like Hulu aren't enough compared to the TV ads. | |

Though it's unconfirmed yet. If it was video capturing, it would make sense. | |

Lately, I've seen a couple "Dear Sister" parodies getting muted by WMG. The thing is, WMG doesn't own that "Hide & Seek" song. RCA does. Unless RCA is part of WMG.

I'm actually doing a paper that touches somewhat on this topic. All the major record labels have been losing a very noticeable amount of money from lack of album sales for around a decade, thanks to internet filesharing. Their response is to attack >everything< in sight. At one point, the CEO of UMG actually called all iPod users thieves.
They don't want to adapt to our changing society and it will eventually make them implode.
