uk-musicUK music industry body UK Music has come out fighting on the side of PRS for Music in its row with Google over YouTube licensing rates. Not a surprise, really, given that PRS for Music is one of UK Music’s key members.But anyway, a statement slams Google, saying that it “qualifies as neither embryonic nor a start-up. In 2008 alone, the internet search giant recorded profits of over £3bn. By comparison, PRS for Music is a not-for-profit organisation, run by its members for its members. In this light, it is difficult but to interpret Google’s actions this week as anything other than cynical and exploitative.”
