Nobody is. They're trying to integrate their services around a social network that they created. They think they're doing consumers a favor by connecting YouTube to Google+--allowing for people to share and view music with their friends. Unfortunately, if you use your real name, this releases your favorited videos and video comments to the public while attached to your real name. It's a privacy issue.
