YouTube To Block Music Videos In the UK

Posted by timothy on from the music-videos-in-the-uk dept.

ChunKing writes "YouTube is to block all premium music videos to UK users after failing to reach a new licensing agreement with the Performing Rights Society. For many of us in the UK this is great news. The two main music licensing agencies in the UK — Phonographic Performance Limited and PRS — have a stranglehold on music use in this country and are stifling creativity."

    Did anyone else read this as "Pornographic Performance Limited"?
