I got a "strike one" on my You Tube account today and it's freaked me out!! (and yes, I may have been caught panicking a little tiny bit)
I can't believe it was on a vid I posted over a year ago (Heaven's Door). I always dispute my copyright infringements and usually the vids are restored. In fact I thought this one was... but.... yikes! I've been put on notice. Looks like 3 strikes and they'll delete my account. I think that may well kill me. There's a lot of work on there.
Do I make a back up account? I can't say I'm keen to but if I do do I reload my vids on that? I really don't want to do that either, but I don't want to lose everything..) I see lots of peeps make "back up accounts" - but I'm not sure what that entails.
I suppose I've been lucky so far... I have 40 vids up and this is the first time this has happened.
Damn!

Date: 2010-06-17 10:04 am (UTC)I have found a Wiki article here about the track "One" - this says that the track belongs to UMG - not sure if everything does. If it does that's good, I've never had a problem with UMG - they tend to just claim the song and use the vid for ad space, I've never even had to put in a dispute with them.
Hope this helps.

Date: 2010-06-17 11:08 am (UTC)Yeah well, I just deleted Heaven's Door. Shame, but I wanted to be safe.
And let's hope UMG own it - I've never had problems with them. I did a search on YT and found a few fanvids for U2 (not the one I'm using) - and they are still there, so fingers crossed.
thanks so much for that honey.
