I've spoken to people from youtube and they seem to agree thats its ridiculous but can't do anything about it
regarding those other guys I couldn't say, but if they american then they are covered by their own fair use copyright law and if they are very successful they probably have the backing of production companies that can deal directly with youtube. As usual with this business its not what you know but who you pay.
