There has to be a difference between a consumer downloading a clip from a Viacom site for personal viewing and a large content distribution company (Googtube) doing it. Viacom may decide to license or they may decide to use another outfit to distribute their content. I am not sure "fair use" is fair to use in this case...sorry I couldn't help myself...
