20 hours after I uploaded my AMV on youtube, I received an email that reads:
Dear,
Your video, Irresponsible Captain Tylor AMV- One more time, one more chance, may have content that is owned or licensed by Office Augusta.
No action is required on your part; however, if you are interested in learning how this affects your video, please visit the Content ID Matches section of your account for more information.
Sincerely,
- The YouTube Team
More interestingly, the content ID Matches section tells me this:
Your video is still available worldwide.
What should I do?
No action is required on your part. In some cases ads may appear next to your video.
Under certain circumstances, you may dispute the copyright claim from Office Augusta. These may be any of the following:
* the content is mistakenly identified and is actually completely your original creation;
* you believe your use does not infringe copyright (e.g. it is fair use under US law);
* you are actually licensed by the owner to use this content.
In some cases ads may appear next to your video.
I guess YouTube has given up blocking content, but instead decided to put ads next to the video. IMHO, much smarter. Instead of making your users criminals, why not make your users someone who help you earn money? Good job YouTube.
