I don't upload anything to youtube, but I use the uploads quite a bit and find that labels are starting to put some stuff up because they realize what a tool it is. I had one this morning that had a beatport link in the video description, very handy.
Just found out someone uploaded one of my releases (within 6 months of the release).... bah.. admittedly, I was a bit flattered. It's not like I was hoping to buy a summer house with the song's earnings or anything.
I appreciate that this community is so diligent with maintaining artist's rights, but I'm afraid that the many shades of Internet piracy are something of a rampaging juggernaut... and there simply isn't enough resources to enforce this. Welcome to the Wild West.
I personally like it, I have discovered a lot of music this way and it's incredibly convenient when sharing music with friends.
That being said, it all depends on the artist, label, and how new the track is. Obviously as there is tons of music on YouTube, the majority of artists and labels don't care. YouTube has a "three strikes" rule where if your videos are reported by content owners three times, you lose your account. The only time I got in trouble was when I uploaded a Wolfgang Gartner track before it was released.
