YouTube "respects the rights of copyright holders," according to the Copyright and Inappropriate Content section of its Help Center. However, it puts the onus on its users to ensure that the material they post is not infringing. Given the type of content available on the site, it's clear that users aren't too concerned about who owns the rights to the material they are uploading. That said, YouTube readily takes down copyrighted material once it is notified of the infringement, as fans of a Saturday Night Live sketch found out earlier this year. YouTube's policy is apparently not enough to appease UMG, as Morris says that the label believes "these new businesses are copyright infringers and owe us tens of millions of dollars."
