The YouTube angle might just be a way of putting a stop to something that might potentially harm a future deal. I dont buy the whole "fear of free exposure" argument, because it took NBC what 3 weeks to stop the spreading. Which is like a millenium in Blogosphere years.

The same thing applies for <i>commercials.</i> After the Super Bowl, iFilm hosted the commercials, but the only ones you could download were Budweiser and Bud Light commercials. Why wouldn't they want you to watch their commercials and show them to friends? Sometimes I question whether the people at the heads of these companies even understand word of mouth...
