Looks like Warner wants more money out of YouTube (Google) this is the story here
''Performances from musical luminaries such as Eric Clapton, Madonna and Led Zepplin are to be pulled off YouTube after a legal battle between Warner Music and the video sharing site's owner Google. A two-year ceasefire between the disputing companies ended after a fresh row erupted over the fees that YouTube must pay to Warner when its artists' music videos are watched online. "We simply cannot accept terms that fail to appropriately and fairly compensate recording artists, songwriters, labels and publishers for the value they provide," said a Warner spokesman. "Sometimes, if we can’t reach acceptable business terms, we must part ways with successful partners," replied a YouTube spokesman by blog. Other artists on the Warner label include James Blunt and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.''
