Is YouTube paying the music industry enough in royalties?

Nine of the 10 most-watched clips on YouTube are music videos, topped by Psy's "Gangnam Style." James Brydges has been finding out more from music law expert Elliot Chalmers.

Rupee ban hurts Indian economy – could the damage get worse?
India's monetary credibility took a hit following the government's decision to remove large denomination notes from circulation one month ago.

Now, rating agency Fitch has cut its growth forecast for the country from 7.4% to 6.9% and some economists believe the damage could be even worse. Robert Van Egghen reports.
