  Sorry if this question should be “naive”, but I’m new of blogging and I want to be sure about the copyright issue.
  It is considered a violation if I just link a youtube video on my blog? And what about the video on you tube uploaded by universal itself?
  Thank you.

  Here are the instructions for placing a youtube on your blog as opposed to just linking to one http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/07/29/how-do-i-post-a-youtube-video/

  i suggest reading the copyright statement per video. generally speaking, it can’t hurt to give credit. :)

  Every YouTube is already a link to the page on YouTube that it came from. People who allow embedding are expecting you to put the video on your blog. They are facilitating it!
