Google is the world's largest media company worth some $140 billion; far larger than Viacom at under $30 billion.

And with Google having 2X the profit margin as Viacom it is likely to stay that way.

Viacom doesn't need to make requests at all...they can sue right out of the box.

Re: He is dreaming

Yea, but under DMCA and the Safe Harbor provision, and Im being specific to the content and actions taken to bring down said content, EACH infraction needs paper work to go along with it. Otherwise Goog can say "we ARE taking ish down" and Viacom can say "they AREN't doing a damn thing".

So with that said, each infraction needs that notification, something Viacom hasn't done. Essentially they can only sue on infractions they informed Goog and YT about.

They would go around the DMCA right to Title 17. -- There's only 10 types of people in this world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. 

Re: He is dreaming

It will settle somehow. Look at that vicious nasty fight between Blackberry and that fly by night patent holding company. The Judge persistently ordered both sides to settle until it finally happened. Both sides know if they hold out and force a judge to do some work, he will be pissed most at the more intransigent holdout. Verison has more to loose here since they are the agressor so a deal will ultimately be struck and Cuban is just a side line pain in the arse just like he is in the basketball games. But Cuban just wants to make more money so more power to him if his antics somehow actually fatten his payday. But he failed to discredit Youtube before the sale so smart people tend to see thru his trash talk.
