This is just absurd in my opinion. This site (and others like it) are not advertising these videos as a means to listen to the songs that are contained within. These movies were works of art that were created for the general enjoyment of others. I guess this is where copywrite laws really hinder creativity (once again).

I would have a problem if these people said the works were completely theirs, but most people even put credits in the end of their movies which stated the title and artist of the song(s) used.

UGH!!!
