When YouTube was a little company with a big
website, publishers of video content knew there was little point in suing the company
for breach of copyright, because it would not be able to pay. But now it’s owned by
Google things are different.

Then take into account that Google has enough problems as it is, what with
Google News upsetting some media publishers, and irked book publishers, it doesn’t
want to rile the movie industry too.

But, no doubt in an attempt to fight off legal action before it begins, YouTube
has purged 30,000 illegal video clips from its website.
