Why do copyright holders restrict access to their videos on youtube? (lemy.nl)

I am faced with the fact that the music video of my favourite band is not available in my region.
I found out about this video by accident, thanks to an app for Invidious.

Perhaps the decision to restrict access belongs to the record label? But what's the point if the band's discs and vinyl records are sold in my country?

(Old music videos and a few new ones are available for viewing. Only one video is not available.)

Arte TV's YouTube channel also has some interesting phenomena going on.

They post recordings of concerts, and after a while they remove them from public access. This can happen a few days after the release or a few months later.
