UMG isn't currently flashing the copyright infringement card, but have they supposedly have some "other" contract with youtube that allows them to essentially take down any video as they see fit. Of course, all requests for proof of such a thing have been denied and youtube doesn't seem to have any knowledge of it either because they said that if UMG had not copyright claims, the video would go back up... and it's up at this point, so I guess youtube doesn't have access to this super-secret contract either.
