How close is Megaupload's shutdown to Prince's issue on Youtube?

How does the issue on Megaupload shutdown relate to Prince's issue on

Youtube music sharing on facebook, myspace and other sites. Why did

progressive Anonomous protest by shutting down Universal Music Group

and Recording Industry of America and DOJ/FBI?

Not remotely close. Megaupload was shut down for ignoring takedown requests by copyright holders. YouTube, OTOH, has automatic processes for takedown requests by copyright holders.

If they were to arrest MU users, methinks all of us on this site would be wearing stripes on the chain gang. We could sing Prince songs call and response style as we hammer rocks, lol.
