German royalty collection society GEMA has
demanded YouTube to pay for its copyright damages after the negotiation between
them broke down, musicweek reported.
GEMA filed a lawsuit last May and the court
ruled that Youtube liable when users upload copyright-protected music without permission.
Youtube decided to appeal and a spokeman of Youtube said “Even though the court
confirmed that YouTube is a hosting platform, the ruling to implement filtering
would be damaging for innovation and freedom of expression online,",

GEMA represents German composers and songwriters’ copyright. It also demanded that YouTube should have legal responsibilities for the videos that are blocked in Germany because of the license.
