    Copyright infringement accusations emerged from Italy as a TV company called Mediaset lobbed a 500 million euros lawsuit at Google.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    Editor's Note: Looks like Google will be fighting billion-dollar suits on both sides of the Atlantic, this time in Italy, where there is no DMCA protection to claim. The outcome is important to every webmaster because cases like these will determine whether sites are really protected from third-party content. Thoughts? Give'em here in the comments section.

    YouTube does have a point. It does have a copyright infringment policy.. with the amount of videos uploaded, its hard to keep track of all of them
