This just keeps getting worse and seems like a forgone conclusion or exclusion. I touched on this on the 26th of last month HERE.
It would seem there are more and more reports on this, but alas the only outcry is still from a select few artists and the independent labels fighting for a better deal.
Here are a few of the articles suddenly bring this issue further into the light:
Motherboard.Vice.com - 17 June - YouTube is about to do to record labels what Amazon do to Publishers
Forbes.com - 18 June - Youtube is about to delete independent artists from its site
Ripitup.com.au - 18 June - Youtube wages war against indie artists: The Breakdown
It also seems fitting that I'm also in the middle of a month of New Zealand Music Videos, many which were released independently or by "small" labels which will likely see some of the videos I've posted removed.
But the other side of the coin sees this article:
Digitalmusicnews.com - 17 June - Everyone calm down. YouTube is NOT going to remove music videos
