Why are some record companies not keen on You Tube?

Some record companies are wary of YouTube due to concerns over copyright infringement and the potential for unauthorized distribution of their music. They fear that free access to songs on the platform may undermine sales and streaming revenue. Additionally, the revenue generated from YouTube may not be sufficient to compensate artists and labels fairly, leading to a reluctance to fully embrace the platform. This tension between exposure and monetization creates a complex relationship between record companies and YouTube.
