Comments on: YouTube pulls audio from greatest music video ever

At the request of Warner Music Group, a video that embeds the "Keyboard Cat" into an '80s-era Hall & Oates video has been silenced. Tragic!

I must agree with the artists on this one. If you make a product, in this case music or a video, you can sell it or give it away. If you decide to sell it, you would not want to see it being played for free on <a href="http://www.canwatchtvonline.com/">TV</a>.

I really hate that music label. Seriously, when I think that in my head, I would like to call them W*nker Moron Group. Someday, I wanna sue them saying that "You shouldn't censor music from popular videos, idiots. I'm watching you Warner W*nkers!!!! >:-E"

I don't understand why some people are being so anal about this. I say, as long as the maker of the vid makes it clear in the description that the music, clips, etc are not his/hers and as long as they give credit to the original creators, it should be fine. I mean, if they give credit, then that's free advertising.
