Re: DMCA'd the Video?
"they should use local German or wider EU laws to get it removed."
Although not specifically stated in the article, reading between the lines and the actions of the copyright holders implies that they posted the original video to YouTube so if they wanted it removed they only have to delete it. No laws required.
Since they didn't remove it, then they want it there for some reason. Maybe they can't afford to host video and its bandwidth cost on their own servers so have to rely on a free service? I suspect if they had hosted it themselves the judgement may have been different.
