The real problem here is that Vevo (and the RIAA, when caught with an IP address that did BitTorrent) won't be persecuted under laws like SOPA/PIPA and whatever comes from ACTA and TPP. Since SOPA gives the DoJ and "rightsholders" discretion about who to shutdown, the situation will be more like the Great Firewall of China: "One eye open, one eye shut".
Some websites will mysteriously be allowed to stream video, others will get slapped down, hard. It will all depend on who you know, and what the transient policy of the moment is. I'm sure that MPAA and RIAA know that they will be allowed to act with discretion, I'm just not sure they know others will, as well, and what the fallout from that will be.
