If there was a hypothetical court case between RIAA and YouTube, or RIAA and the creators of the videos RIAA might not necessarily win becuase there are defences that could be used such as fair dealing for educational, discussion or review purposes.

However, I imgaine that YouTube's attitude is we've been asked to remove something, we don't want to be sued, lets remove it.
