Following a blackout period of about six months, music videos are set to make their return to YouTube UK.

YouTubes worked out an agreement with PRS for Music, a trade body that collects royalties and at one point asked to be paid about 0.36 cents each time a clip was played.It was when YouTube UKs previous agreement with PRS expired that the problems began. YouTube representatives argued that a proposed new arrangement would cause it to lose money every time someone watched a music video.
