Giving away stuff for free on a streaming service such as YouTube is very difference to giving stuff away as part of a package that you charge for....youtube royalties are claimed via other means.
Also bear in mind that Metallica and Pearl Jam mostly write their own stuff and don't use outisde writers, I believe. The majority of Jon's stuff is co-written with outside writers or people not part of the orginisation anymore....you can't just give their stuff away when you are charging for it (Billy Falcon, Desmond Child, Sambora...)
