    • Does You Tube really hurt these people? If any thing, seeing artists on You Tube increases the chances of my supporting them.

    • you hit it on the head, its the record LABELS not the artists that are crying for more money. Because at the end of the day, that's what it is all about.

    • Doesn't anybody realize that desperate times call for desperate measures? From a legal standpoint, they copyrighted their music and therefore deserve any profits generated by the use of their material for any purpose. Y-tube makes millions in revenue from advertising, i.e. I'm exposed to advertising because I wanted to see a video, Y-tube is paid to host the ads on their site, therefore Y-tube should pay Metallica for allowing their music to be posted, which in turn gets them paid.
