for example Google cooperates with YouTube, if You have Google account (Google Video) it can attach it with YouTube account

You don't have to, if you press the YouTube logo in the top-left corner you can bypass it. It is annoying because it will come up every time you log in though.

I have a google account anyway, but it is extremely shit of them to force you into it.

I guess Google don't want to operate two ID systems and can't just transfer over YT accounts as there will probably already be users with those names.

I got a mail that I had to activate my google account, but my YouTube account is alraedy working.. does this ever expire? And what will be the consequences, deleted YT account? Hate if I get forced to do something a nerd of Google wants.

I think it's to prevent spam, and help Google track you.

To make a Google account these days you need to provide a working phone number, so they can track you down.
