To Paul's credit: There is one thing that he does that proves that he's not an assh-le: He could easily be relentlessly territorial about his music being all over YouTube, but he chooses not to be -- unlike Madonna and Prince (the latter, who can't even GIVE his records away anymore). Paul is smart enough to realize that this only promotes him. But we fans get to enjoy it, too.
