Apparently so. The U.S. pop star Prince plans to sue YouTube and other major Web sites for unauthorized use of his music. The singer is frustrated with the fact that YouTube can filter other “banned” materials except the unauthorized music or film content. In response to Prince affirmations YouTub said their team try their best to respect copyrights and is working with artists to help them manage their music on the site.
Prince is not stopping here, he plans legal action against eBay and Pirate Bay, a site accused by Hollywood and the music industry as being a major source of music and film piracy. I honest advice here, forget it Prince. It’s crazy. It’s the biggest mistake ever, YouTube is the greatest thing that could happen to you people out there in the spotlight. You should try to benefit as much as possible not fight with it. It’s a new era and these are the new ways of connecting with your fans. YouTube.com is the popular online video-sharing site, and while stars like Prince are disturbed by the popular Web sites, some up-and-coming performers actually encourage online file sharing to create a fan base around a record.
Most content owners understand that we respect copyrights, we work every day to help them manage their content, and we are developing state-of-the-art tools to let them do that even better. We have great partnerships with major music labels all over the world that understand the benefit of using YouTube as another way to communicate with their fans.
