Apparently several of the artists that appeared in this video served Youtube with takedown notices saying that they never gave their permission for their work or likeness to be in the video. They claim that Megaupload spliced together random footage to come up with this endorsement video. Of course Megaupload says otherwise.
It will be interesting to see how this one plays out.

you do realize that not a copyright issue right
if mega upload paid those artist to do a puff piece interview and got them to sign a release that allowed it distribution in whole or in part.
cutting those parts together into a music video would in fact be perfectly legal
it like when porn girls signed open releases for you guys expecting that the video would be shown only on dvd, but then have them cut together for web sites.
