NEW YORK (Reuters) - Viacom Inc. (NYSE:VIAB - news) on Friday demanded that Google Inc.'s (Nasdaq:GOOG - news) online video service YouTube remove more than 100,000 video clips after they failed to reach a distribution agreement.
Viacom said it sent a notice to YouTube on Friday morning, asking the popular video-sharing site to remove clips from Viacom-owned properties including MTV Networks and BET.
The media company controlled by Sumner Redstone said its pirated programs on YouTube has generated about 1.2 billion video streams, based on a study from an outside consultant.
A YouTube representative could not immediately be reached for comment
