Sony Blocks Beyonce YouTube Videos



Beyonce fans can no longer watch videos on her official YouTube channel. While clicking on a video the following message appears: “This video contains content from Sony Music Entertainment, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.”

The YouTube block allegedly stems from a copyright infringement issue involving Sony. No further details are currently available though speculation is that Sony is looking for a piece of the lucrative online video market.

It’s not all bad news though, Beyonce and Lady Gaga have been breaking worldwide chart records with their “Telephone” video. The duo come in a tie with Mariah Carey for most ever No. 1 songs on the Billboard Pop Songs. The video has helped Lady Gaga reach over a billion views, an all time record on YouTube.
