Youtube will lose tons of music and video games plays.

And I don't have Netflix so I didn't include them. Also I think they license their shite.

Music is mostly done through VEVO which I believe is licensed through the individual artists. Youtube would be fine, they'd lose some of the video game stuff, but they've got plenty of other things.

No, I watch a lot of video game stuff on youtube because there are some really funny commentators that help me get through some boring days at work

I'm assuming that if this happens, each company could specifically allow their copyrighted material to be streamed. This Bill doesn't take away the right for companies to decide on what is stream-able correct?

This is bullshite.

It seems that they don't intend to harm "let's play" videos but the wording is so broad that it will.

X is one of my favorite commentators, and he does a great job of explaining it.
