It is about to become a little more difficult to watch music videos by Madonna, Metallica and Kid Rock.
Unable to reach new licensing terms, the Warner Music Group has demanded that thousands of its videos be removed from YouTube, which is owned by Google. Warner Music’s videos, the source of a billion views on YouTube, gradually began disappearing from the site on Saturday, although many remained online Sunday evening.
Music video streams may be a new battleground between Google, which wants to expand its video advertising business, and media companies, which expect to be fully compensated for their online content.

A September surprise, the Canon 5D Mark II popped up Wednesday at the big biennial battleground for camera makers, the Photokina trade show in Cologne, Germany.
The original 5D, though three years old, is still the heavy-duty camera of choice for a legion of admirers thanks to its full-frame sensor, which produces colorful, detailed images.
Cosmetically the same, the new version shoots full HD video and even better still pictures. The larger data stream from a 21-megapixel sensor is handled by more efficient amplifier circuitry and a new signal processor, the Digic IV, for a reduction in digital noise. Pictures are clearer and sharper, and a light sensitivity setting up to ISO 25,600 produces good pictures in very low light.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - YouTube has broadcast its first live event, an extravaganza which was part concert and part variety show and which drew comments from viewers ranging from “AWESOME!” to “train wreck.”
The popular video-sharing Internet site streamed a two-hour live broadcast at youtube.com/live featuring well- to lesser-known singers, dancers and video bloggers who became online celebrities through YouTube.
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Electronic Arts Inc unveiled its first personal training product on Thursday, tapping into the growing appeal of video games as fitness systems as seen with Nintendo Co Ltd’s hit title “Wii Fit” earlier this year.
The $60 title, EA Sports Active, is exclusive to Nintendo’s Wii console, and will hit store shelves in March 2009. Targeted toward women as a low-cost alternative to joining sports club or gym, the game features an interactive computer trainer, and crafts running, boxing and other heart-pumping exercises to the user’s desires.
