Google's comment: "We’re committed to providing users and creators with a great and consistent YouTube experience across devices, and we’ve been working with Microsoft to build a fully featured YouTube for Windows Phone app, based on HTML5. Unfortunately, Microsoft has not made the browser upgrades necessary to enable a fully-featured YouTube experience, and has instead re-released a YouTube app that violates our Terms of Service. It has been disabled. We value our broad developer community and therefore ask everyone to adhere to the same guidelines."[1] Microsoft's responds by saying cooperation with Google has stalled because Google insists the app be built using HTML5, a technical restriction other mobile platforms are not held to.[2] -- [1]http://www.zdnet.com/why-is-google-blocking-the-new-youtube-app-for-windows-phone-7000019460/ http://www.zdnet.com/why-is-google-blocking-the-new-youtube-...
