YouTube posting difficulties

[Kevin McQuarters]

I'm sure I'm not the only one to encounter YouTubes' newest attempt at "piracy prevention". Or should we say piracy for profit.

I attempted to upload our 2008 Xmas show videos for the LOR contest only to encounter the new "content ID" policy. Short & sweet..... WMG (Warner Music Group) is the current copyright holder for four of the seven songs we uploaded. They have directed YouTube to disable the audio portion of the submission thanks to a current dispute over royalty payments. Seems strange that I can search for the same content on other submissions and get both audio & video?!

My submissions were mysteriously "approved" after I submitted fair use claims under YouTubess' dispute channels. Cheers to YouTube & WMG, I'm still going elsewhere in the future.



Enjoy LOR 32 channels while they stand..............

Hi

I had the same problem & went to Vimeo web hosting site & uploaded with no problems it is also free like u-tube. Here is the link & you can embed your videos in your personal website.

Hope this works as good for you as it has for me.

I have experienced this as well trouble is they ID'ed the song as something completely different. I uploaded the same vid a few days later and no problems, so it may be something akin to the apple iphone app store validation process
