Comment on Valve Sued By The Performing Rights Society Over Music Rights in Games Valve Doesn’t Make or Own

But that’s very different. People are uploading music on YouTube to be listened to as music and that directly infringes the copyright of another song on YouTube that is legit. It’s directly taking money from the owners of the song. Games are not (typically) intended to be a replacement for just listening to that song.

That’s just not true. Music is often uploaded as a background component for a video.
