"On October 5, 2006 the Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers had their copyright complaints regarding Japanese media on YouTube finalized. Thousands of media from popular Japanese artists were removed.

When CBS and Universal Music Group signed agreements to provide content to YouTube on October 9, they also announced that they would use new technology that will help them find copyrighted material and remove it." (Source: Wikipedia)

A real fan would actually buy products rather than look at them illegally on YouTube.  And if you do buy the DVDs and music videos and such, but go on YouTube anyway, that still doesn't make you any better.  That just makes you retarded.
