Machinist, one of Salon's blogs, has an article up describing Viacom's absurd approach to internet video and Youtube. From the people who thought it would be better to sue their customers rather than sell them what they want in a format with 0 manufacturing costs we get:
"In other words, Google would have paid Viacom for letting the VMA video go to YouTube. Instead, in order to keep the video on its own site, Viacom ran an ad on Google pointing to MTV.
Let me say that again: In pursuit of complete control of its content, Viacom would rather pay Google than take Google's money."

When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun?
