The amount of people killing themselves in low paid jobs and all the homeless people about etc i think he is just another greedy small minded person basically but he has his rights to sue of course.
It would be a shame to see youtube destroyed because of him i think.
I don't like greedy people or corporations and i they are destructive to this enviroment and it has been proven so!

There is a difference between being greedy and wanting to control what you own. He created these videos and this music. He owns them. Should he not have a right to say how and when they are played/sold/used? That is what he is doing here. He doesn't want Youtube to be able to display his stuff without his approval and he is taking them to court to make them stop.
Answer me this. Let's say you make good money running a company that builds lawnmowers. You make them and people buy them. Then one day you find out that someone broke into your warehouse and took a bunch of lawn mowers that you had made and they were now using these lawn mowers to run a landscaping business. You tell them you want your mowers back but they say to you, "well, you weren't using them, they were just sitting there." So you say to them,"That doesn't matter, they are mine." To which they reply, "too bad, you've made a bunch of money selling lawn mowers you aren't going to miss a few." And they keep doing what they were doing and don't stop. Is it greedy to sue them to make them give you back your lawn mowers?
