Tom Rubin's (associate general counsel for intellectual property at
Microsoft) article - 

Page 13 in today's Financial Times - the article itself is not free -
have to subscribe to it.

 

Essentially Rubin contends that Google are arrogant and do not comply
with copyright - 

something Microsoft always does....This may have to do with more than
the library project - 

the YouTube issue is one of the main points he raises.
