Wow - how's this for timing?? As luck would have it, I actually had someone this week STEAL one of new songs and its video from Youtube. They appear to steal quite a few videos, just by copying them and listing their advertising links along with the stolen video notes. I don;t see how it benefit them, really ... but I didn't like the idea so I looked into reporting the video. First I reported it as SPAM, but that made no impact. I read the "report copy right infringement" procedures from Youtube. That looked pretty serious and time consuming, and perhaps these stealers of my song made an honest mistake ... so I wrote to them. Told them they were infringing upon my copyright and told them (firmly but politely) to remove it immediately or I would be forced to report them for copyright infringement. They did nothing. So today, I did my homework. Got all of the details, read all of the procedures and filed the complaint. I'll let y'all know how it goes.
