I just made a video with Windows Movie Maker, and uploaded to Youtube, only to find the audio track totally missing. Is it because I chose a popular song as the audio track (DRM/licensing issues) ?

As far as I know, your video gets banned if you use unlicensed audio. – Michael K Mar 7 '11 at 14:36

Most likely yes. You can find out yourself by visiting the list of our videos "My Uploaded Videos" on youtube (you need to be logged in) and see if there is a Note about "Matched third party content".

Yeap, there it is. – ripper234 Mar 7 '11 at 15:02
In fact, I got an email from Youtube about it, I just hadn't had a chance to check my mail yet :) – ripper234 Mar 7 '11 at 15:06
Hmm, I think I just upvoted this answer twice - once on Superuser, and once here. – ripper234 Mar 7 '11 at 15:13
