RIAA makes YouTube pull guitar lessons

The RIAA has forced YouTube to pull videos from its site that have guitarists playing copyrighted music.  Guitar students, who use the site to learn to play guitar have lost a resource that was free, searchable, and easy to use.

In one instance, a guitar teacher had over 100 videos taken down from his account.  In a statement it mentioned that the teacher was infringing on copyrights.  Most of the videos taught people how to play Rolling Stones songs.
