You Fail!!!
---You know full well I have no way of knowing who posts crap on YouTube---

I didn't ask you who was posting on YouTube. I asked you to provide information on who the copyright holder is for the videos on YouTube.

---Further, they can put an end to it by teminating that users rights to upload anything. After all, they DO KNOW the user violated their terms of use.---

Yes, they should do this once a violation has been reported.

---As to your challenge, I just looked at the top 5 for today, three of them are copyrighted works.---

Who holds the copyright? How does one contact them? Do you know if they've granted permission for their works to be shown on YouTube?

---Dang, that was horribly hard, NOT!!!---

Apparently it was, because you failed miserably. You did not provide one spec of the information you asked YouTube to provide. The obvious answer to this is that it is impossible for most of the material to determine who holds the copyright, how to contact them, and how to determine if permission has been granted for usage, just from looking at the videos.

Now, do you want to try again, or will you just concede the point that there is no central repository with information on who holds the copyright for what.
