4 - youtube would then pay a fee to ASCAP or BMI just like every radio and TV station
in the world.


END of problem.


But no........the internet is somehow different and nobody has to pay and that's
why SOPA is trying to cut the shit off at the root. The internet has produced
arrogant jackasses that think the law doesn't apply to them so this is the result.
If people can't obey the current law then the government will make new law.
DUH!!!
except that non commercial covers is covered by fair use. other than your solution is an attempt to claw back establish fair use rights there nothing wrong with it
