GEMA seeks YouTube deal after German copyright case
Posted in: Online TV/Music at 23/04/2012 14:57
German royalties collections body GEMA hopes a landmark court ruling last week will force Google's YouTube into talks over copyrighted content that could result in GEMA getting a share of the website's advertising revenues.
A court in Hamburg on Friday forced YouTube to take down seven copyrighted clips in the case brought by GEMA that could mean other online music and video services will face hefty royalties bills.
