So I've been spending my Saturday night preparing for tomorrow's livestream by reading up on all the details of YouTube's Content ID system and reading the licenses of various royalty free music sites, and all it's doing is making me more and more angry about the whole system...

this system is inherently rigged to the advantage of copyright holders, except it's also extremely easy for a supposed copyright holder to be malicious, or at best just be wrong or make a mistake, and there's very little a content creator can do

anyway, if you want to hear me rant for an hour about what I'm dealing with trying to fight this obviously invalid (i'm being generous here) Content ID claim on some of my YouTube videos, join me tomorrow at 10am Pacific youtube.com/OLK2re0LfrQ

oh no oh no it gets worse... I literally just got an email saying they rejected the dispute. They are obviously wrong about this and anyone at YouTube with half a brain can tell you this, but how am I supposed to get someone at YouTube to care??

I remember being at DreamForce, and the head of marketing for Coca Cola played the "I'd like to teach the world to sing" ad, and ContentID took down the live stream.
