So, basically you retain your ownership rights, but grant YouTube all rights that (co-)ownership would grant?

  Not quite because they can't transfer those rights to others. I've got no problem with the Youtube rights. They need to be able to store and distribute the content you upload on a variety of media, through a variety of formats and to all sorts of end user devices and services in perpetuity, many of which haven't even been invented yet. Any thing less than these rights they reserve would almost inevitably lead to them breaching those terms eventually.

    That's why the rights should be granted for the purpose of performing the service, and nothing else. In other words, take "in connection with the Service and YouTube's business", and cut everything from the "and" on.

    The grant is "sublicenseable and transferable".
