I'm not going to take seriously anyone that really compared games to movies in this regard. Movies are designed to be experienced by watching them, games are not. There are some extremely cinematic games as well, but as far as I'm concerned, it's the devs' problem if they want to call them games instead of movies.
Also, these videos are more helpful than harmful, as they're basically free advertising. No one deserves money for free advertising.
And finally, recording games is more comparable to recording your driving. You don't have to pay the car's manufacturer if you record a video while driving in their car, do you? And you don't have to pay a tool maker if you make something awesome with their tools, do you? At least I think you don't, but if you do, I don't think I want to live on this planet anymore. Anyway, point is, it's a slippery slope which brings us to a situation where you have to pay anyone whose product happens to appear in your product to a large extent.

False! I disagree. Well technically I suppose they do have the right, but I disagree to them having that right.
