This is a copy of a post I made on the video's comments section, however Youtube will not allow me to pin any comments at all unless I send them a photo of my drivers licence which I refuse to do as they state that they would be keeping in on file for up to 2 years (I am pretty sure it was 2 years from memory). Would you do it ? Didn't think so. So I have had to post it on my channel as well.
This is just to advise in regards to ads on this video which many people have been enjoying ad free. I do not own the content of the video. The copyright holder is Sony Pictures and Pink Floyd themselves. I do not run ads on any of my videos, I cannot because I do not own the copyright on the remastered music videos and concerts I upload for the enjoyment of music fans.
When I uploaded this video 8 months ago, it was blocked worldwide by Sony and Pink Floyd and could not be viewed anywhere. I was disappointed given the huge amount of hours I had put in to it, so I manually submitted a copyright dispute which was sent to Sony and Pink Floyd asking that the restrictions be taken off. I explained the amount of work I had put in to the restoration project and that my channel is not monetised, I was not making a cent and that it was done simply for the benefit of music fans like myself. I was both surprised and very happy when I received notice that they agreed with my reasoning and they immediately removed all copyright restrictions from my video including running ads which was another fantastic surprise. The video was completely copyright free.
Recently, a copyright claim was made on one single song in the video, "Another brick in the wall pt 2", by a group of companies - BMG Rights Management (US), LLC, ARESA, LatinAutorPerf, Abramus Digital, LatinAutor, MINT_BMG. While this claim does not block any of the content, according to comments on the video (some quite rude) it would appear that they are running ads. Again, I do not own the content, which makes it very hard to argue copyright. It is always a David versus Goliath battle when the average Youtube user tries to do something against record companies.
Given the original approval I received from Sony Pictures and Pink Floyd, I have made application for the above copyright claim to be removed on the basis of that prior approval of use I had and that I do not believe those companies are the correct copyright holders and that they do not override Sony Pictures and Pink Floyd. I wont know the result of that application for up to 30 days.
Please remember, people like myself that spend hours and hours of their own time and their own money remastering videos for the benefit and enjoyment of other music fans cannot and do not control third party ads. In general we cannot do anything about them and it's only idiots like myself that spend their time standing up for you that thing sometimes can go in our favour. There is no point complaining about ads, because in general I cant do anything about it and if there is anything I can do, I have likely already done it.
Thanks for your consideration and a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all my subscribers. I hope to see you all back here in the New Year, and if you are not a subscriber, please hit the subscribe button. I have hundreds of remastered videos and some fantastic playlists you can enjoy over the holiday period. Check out the playlists in my last comment from 4 days ago.
