Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi’s broadcast group is the latest company to declare war on YouTube, the video-sharing website.

Mediaset, which is controlled by the billionaire media mogul and his family, said it was seeking damages of “at least” £400 million from YouTube and its owner Google, for “illegal distribution and commercial use of audio and video files”.

A trawl through the YouTube site on 10 June revealed 4,643 clips and 325 hours of Mediaset material, according to a statement by the company, which owns three of Italy’s six terrestrial channels.

YouTube also hosts the infamous 2006 Humping Video as seen above.
