Video copyright question

    I was wondering if there are any issues with regard to using embedded videos on a site. If a video legally appears on YouTube (A song posted by a group for example) is it ok for me to embed it on my site without permission? I assume by enabling embedding the owner is giving anyone permission to do so.
    If I then put ads by the video on my site then it can't be breaking any rules, can it?

    It should be fine but then again it is Google we are talking about they can ban you for no reason. Ive see hundreds of sites with this and they seem to still be running adsense.

    I would not agree they will ban you for no reason and just because other site are doing it does not mean its ok. I would read more into the Adsense rules about this.
