UMG Sues Veoh

Universal Music Group is suing Veoh for copyright infringement, based on alleged "massive" copyright infringement by the site's users, Forbes reports. Ironically, one of Veoh's backers is Michael Eisner, former head of CAA and, briefly, CEO of Disney. Veoh counters that it is protected by the DMCA safe harbor rules for internet providers.
