It's been a while since I've uploaded anything to Youtube, but I did run afoul of those copyright laws (with using about a minute or so of music). Which in the macro, is fine. I believe in copyright. It's just kind of annoying when you're repurposing or not even using all of the content (and even attributing). In those cases, you would think the creator would be okay with the use since it might spark more interest. Nope. Some people would prefer no outside help because it doesn't count to their numbers. If I could pay a reasonable fee to use snippets of things, I would, but even those can be outrageous (priced for major producers, not the little guy).

Yeah it's a pain. When peopel try to use your stuff to make money, I can understand. I give my original content for free, but wouldn't want someone using it for money... It's happened before as I caught someone on FB , the Occult University Library assholes took my infographics, removed my site and put their logo, trying to pawn it off as their own work. Douchebags tried to justify it after.
