You're giving YouTube the right (a non-exclusive right, but the right nonetheless) to license the work you upload. I'd be *very* surprised if some cash hasn't passed from Viacom to YouTube as part of this show.

Not that it makes Viacom's actions any less despicable -- you'd really expect them to grant the right to post the segment to the person who created the original source material.
