Ok thanks. Seem they were right. Strange !? Germany is the only country where they are blocked.
Can be related to the mafia-like organization called GEMA. The only people who still like them are older record companies and politicians, despite their activities violating almost all articles in the basic law (aside of religious freedom. They mob all religions equally).
Youtube has a lot of problems with the GEMA, because GEMA requested a price for each GEMA protected video that can is astronomic (even higher as the charge for discotheques and TV stations, and far beyond the standards for web radios), while also being able to claim that all music in Germany is protected by them (GEMA preference) unless the artist gives you a written certificate that it is not. Which is of course not acceptable for Google. Aside of the fact that they would pay multiple times per video.
