The amount of music vids people watch then end up purchasing the track must be a major plus for keeping music vids on you tube

It's been happening for ages

It's only the official versions you won't be able to watch,and if someone uploads an official version youtube will block it,

Still plenty of other versions which in actual fact are original anyway.

Thats what I thought and there is that thing that comes up form itunes allowing you to follow a link to buy it. So essentially good advertising.

but surely there was no risk of anyone downloading the streamed files as the quality would be rubbish on them.

They keep taking football highlights down due to copyright.

They've also removed the sound from computer game videos too!
