This from John Dvorak is probably the best summation I've seen of fair use and copyright:

All we are seeing with YouTube clips is a modern version of a quote or excerpt. That's all it is. It's not piracy. It's not stealing. It's not a threat to any income stream. There is no net loss to anyone except the host paying for the bandwidth. It's fair use. Let's not forget how important the notion of fair use is. And don't let bullies like Redstone tell you otherwise.

Exactly.
