Warner Music Group, which pulled its videos from YouTube in late 2008 following a disagreement over licensing rates, has inked a deal with Google to put its catalog back onto the YouTube video streaming site.
YouTube’s head of music partnerships Chris Maxcy confirmed the deal In a press conference Tuesday morning and said it covers official videos as well as user-generated videos that make use of Warner’s music. Talks apparently never ceased between the two companies; the hold-up in getting Warner’s music back onto YouTube had to do in part with aligning publishers (Warner Chappell, songwriters) and sound recording copyright holders (Warner Music Group, artists).
Things have been *very* quiet around here lately – please feel free to email me if you have anything at all to donate – fanart, news, pictures, icons, the lot! Whilst the guys are finishing up the new album there isn’t much going on, and I’d like to keep the site as updated as possible.
“Desolation Row” has been nominated for Scream Song of the Year, up against Rob Zombie, Linkin Park, Paramore and Jace Everett – click HERE to cast your vote! The results will be shown on Scream TV on October 27.
At the official site, the current store offer is a very cool Roxy Litho availible free with any purchase of $35 or more – with only 200 availible online, get yours now! Fianlly, check out this awesome video of MCR when they did their recent performance at Summer Sonic ‘09:
