In addition to damages, Viacom said it wants an injunction prohibiting Google and YouTube from further copyright infringement in the future. With this, Steven Chen and Chad Hurley, co-founders of YouTube, have to deal with their first major lawsuit for copyright infringement. Viacom first demanded that YouTube take down videos from shows on Viacom-owned networks that were posted on the Web site without Viacom's consent.

Google acquired YouTube for nearly $1.7 billion late in 2006. Viacom is the first major media firm to sue YouTube and Google over alleged copyright infringement. Other media companies, including GE-owned NBC Universal, CBS and Universal Music Group have decided to partner with YouTube, the world's most popular online video site.
