Business Matters: YouTube strikes indie record deal 12 Nov 14

Wed1, 12 Nov 14

YouTube signs a deal with thousands of independent music labels, ending a long-running spat2 over its streaming service, the BBC understands. The move paves the way for the imminent3 launch of YouTube's music subscription4 service. Some of the world's biggest banks brace5 themselves for another round of mutli-billion-dollar fines - this time for allegedly rigging currency markets. And we crack open a row over mayonnaise as a new brand, Just Mayo, attracts the anger of bigger, rival firms like Hellmann's, who've accused it of misleading consumers because the product doesn't contain any eggs. Plus, we hear about the cutbacks silencing musicians at Rome's Opera House. We're joined throughout the programme by Vicky Mohieddeen, who runs travel firm Koryo Tours, which specialises in North Korea, and also Lizzie Oleary, the host of Marketplace Weekend, our sister program at american public radio
