Warner wants more money from YouTube<\/a>, and because it isn’t getting it, you’ll shortly have a tougher time finding music\/videos from artists like Cher, Alanis Morrisette, The Raconteurs, etc<\/a>.:<\/p>\n

Warner Music Group ordered YouTube on Saturday to remove all music videos by its artists from the popular online video-sharing site after contract negotiations broke down.<\/p>\n

The order could affect hundreds of thousands of videos clips, as it covers Warner Music’s recorded artists as well as the rights for songs published by its Warner\/Chappell unit, which includes many artists not signed to Warner Music record labels.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Between that and Sony’s dedication to hating its own customers (i.e., making it impossible to easily embed videos from Sony artists), the music series here will have to shift from being mostly retrospective to a good bit more prospective.\u00c2\u00a0 When it comes to new music, I’ve happily avoided the major labels for years. \u00c2\u00a0 Most of my favorite new artists – like Dan Reeder<\/a>, Stereo Total<\/a>, and Tanghetto<\/a> – are on indy labels that don’t fight against the idea that the more people that hear their artists’ music, the better off they are.\u00c2\u00a0 That doesn’t, unfortunately, solve for the problem of having most of the music I love – and want to share – stuck with the old major labels, but it’s a start.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
