YouTube's copyright policy

This is already the second copyright strike against my account. "A single additional claim against your account will result in the termination of your account".  I should delete videos to which I don't own the rights.. But how can I know!? I read those
copyright tips on youtube.. "Even if you took the video yourself, the performer controls the right to use his/her image in a video, the songwriter owns the rights to the song being performed, and sometimes the venue prohibits filming without permission, so this video is likely to infringe somebody else's rights." 
Does that mean I should delete all videos of concerts I've filmed? Except Jann Wilde's concerts.. I know I'm allowed to upload them. But what about the others? Oh noo... I really don't want them to delete my account! There's some videos I haven't on my computer anymore because I lost everything last autumn.. Or the one before last autumn? I have no sense of time anymore.. Anyway I've had my youtube account for years, and there's all my friends and comments and messages too.. I don't want a fresh start! So I have to get rid of everything?? Or just hope they won't complain about my videos?? Why can't even internet life be simple enough!

  2. No niimpä! Oikeesti, mistä mää voin tietää mitä saan pitää siä ja mitä en.. Jos joku levy-yhtiö tai keikkapaikkatyyppi tai bändijäsen valittaa viä kerran nii mun käyttäjä poistetaa! O_o

    but you could simply download those you haven'T got anymore on your pc ... in case they would claim some copyright things... >.< it really sucks I had to put down the Marilyn Video - Calling your name... which I made on my own .. you know the sims2 thing! ...

  4. Heey :) Yeah I'll download those videos back to me.. There's that download thing on youtube, but for some reason it lets me download only two videos and then it disappears and I can download the next two some other day! O_o
    Yeah I know your Marilyn sims2 video.. I didn't know it had to be put down too.. =/ Why are they so stict now! They're deleting so many videos and channels these days.. No one said anything about copyright things an year or too ago!

  5. just use DVDVIDEOSOFT it's fantastic :)
    you copy the link in that prog. and then you can load the vid ^^... it some of my vids .. I actually had to put down some of HIM and stuff and it makes me sad, cause some ppl really liked what I made :)

    I don't even know why I had to put down the marilyn video .. 'cause he really liked it xD maybe he sold some of the rights O.o...

  6. Oh I just realised... Maybe I'd be able to download videos from youtube using Atube catcher! I usually use it for downloading songs from youtube videos.. But I guess there's the option to download videos too. I have to try.. When I have time. :D
    I didn't even see your HIM videos.. I've only seen the Marilyn video and JWRA :D
    I know.. Youtube deleted my Marilyn - RAining again video too.. Even though Marilyn said he likes it!

  7. I had one HIM vid I was really proud of :) I cut together all the videos HIM had released so far and made it all together in a nice way with the song Stigmata Diaboli :) it really looks good but well ... there was the copyright thing =/ .. so I didn't upload it to my newer accout ^^... so it's been a while with that but it still sucks.. xD

    ReplyDelete
  8. Oh.. So it wasn't only a pictures video! I'm sure it was great video.. Unfortunately I haven't seen it though.. Did youtube delete your account or did you just decide to make new one? :D

    ReplyDelete
  9. I decided to make a new one because I really didn't like my old nickname anymore xD ... so I changed it to the new nick my dictonary forced me to use ;D
    maybe I could send the vid 2 you if you want to watch it?... ^^

    xXX

    ReplyDelete
  10. Hahah.. XD I don't like my youtube nickname too much either but I don't want to make new account, because I've had this one for years.. And there's all the friends, videos, favourites, comments, messages.. EVERYTHING. :D Send it to my email ? :D xx

    ReplyDelete

  12. Yes I'll send you my email address when I reply to your latest PM on youtube.. I'm so busy with all these comments and everything, you're so fast to reply :DD But it's just a good thing.. Usually I get so bored when I'm online and no one's talking to me. :D Yeah hopefully it isn't too big.. I really want to see it =) xx

    ReplyDelete
  13. xD I just know what you mean, like you have msn contacts but sometimes nobody is online or they don't really talk much to you so you get bored xD...
    xXx

    ReplyDelete
  14. MSN is soo boring.. I have one or two friends who often talks to me on msn but others don't say anything.. And I mostly talk with people on facebook but it's like I write to someone and then wait for weeks to get a reply.. =/ xx

    ReplyDelete
  15. xD if your mailadress is your msn 2 i'll add you xD then we can talk about anything :P on msn 2 ^^ I love the smileys there but I don'T really have anyone wher I can use them xD...

    xx

    ReplyDelete
  17. :) I'll send you the vid.. well if it isn't to big.. but incase it would be to big for sendin maybe it works on msn ;D

    xXx

    ReplyDelete
  18. Yeah.. Let's try on msn. :D xx

    ReplyDelete
  19. it is too big (for mail) it has 55MB size and hotmail only lets me 10MB to attach... =/
    hopefully it goes via msn :P

    ReplyDelete
  20. I don't think there's any limits how big files to attach on msn.. It just takes for a while to send.. :D

    ReplyDelete
  21. xD I think it takes like... forever xD

    ReplyDelete
  22. It's only about half of it left! :DD And it's been like.. hour? maybe not so much yet but.. anyway :D

    ReplyDelete
  23. I hope it goes on that way xD
    .. because I know like the side of transfer where the first parts are soo fast and the last little percent xD takes forever :P

    ReplyDelete
  24. It's almost sent! That's good as I don't have time to wait forever as I have to turn off the computer before my parents come home... lol :D

    ReplyDelete
  25. :) it's ready :P ^^ and I'm like working on a new version ... but this time I think I'll do it a little bit different PLUS ;D a different song of course ^^ twice the same is not that interesting :P

    ReplyDelete
  26. I looove it ♥ Yeah of course do with a different song.. XD And let me know when it's done, I want to see it too :D

    ReplyDelete
  27. okay I will ^^
    but I think it takes a bit more time than the last one because I have to rip my love metal archives DVD on pc ^^ so I can use the videos... :D

    ReplyDelete
  28. Cool... At least you have something to do when you're bored :D Have you thought about which song will you use next time? ^__^ I've been online for two hours and now I have to leave even though I didn't manage to reply to all the comments yet! =( I wish I'd have an own computer...

    ReplyDelete
  29. I don't know which song I'm goin to use this time ^^ but I know that it will take a long time till I can use my DVD rip xD 'cause my prog. somehow makes a file that no other prog. can read xD... strange but I'll work on this prob ^^ ... and find me a better version ^.^

    ReplyDelete
  30. Good luck... :D I'd have no idea how to do videos like that XD

    ReplyDelete
  31. well I learned that in school ^^ I mean editing videos and audiofiles.. but xD riping a DVD is no thing you have to learn you only need a good software.. xD but it seems like this one I used to rip doesn't really work the way it should ^^ I think tomorrow I ask my friend google if he knows some good freeware :P

    ReplyDelete
  32. I can use windows movie maker! lool.. :D But not that well enough either. For some reason I had filmed some Boy George videos at the concert two years ago with my camera sideways.. And I tried to turn them .. But whatever I did, some parts couldn't be turned! O_o

    ReplyDelete
  33. I've never turned vids. with moviemaker xD ... but there is a prog. from DVDvideoSoft which turns videos.. it's called Free Video Flip and Rotate (oh how creative xD)
    maybe you could try this ^^ perhaps it helps..
    and its freeware :D

    ReplyDelete
  34. It's just that.. I can't download any programs to our computer because I don't know my mum or dad's passwords! And they're the only ones who can download programs =/ Maybe someday when I'll have my own computer... :DD

    ReplyDelete
  35. oh that's a pitty... well I would send it via msn but it doesn't work to send setup data via msn.. because of the firewall and virusscan...

    perhaps they let you if you tell them that you need that to turn your video :D

    ReplyDelete
  36. Well, there's no need for turning videos anymore.. It was the first gig ever where I used my camera so I didn't know I shouldn't film sideways! lol.. And after that all my videos are fine, don't need turning. But I can't edit those Boy George videos anymore.. I lost them from my computer over an year ago when our pc went broken and I lost everything then =(

    ReplyDelete
  37. oh =( that's sad! but I know what it's like ... I lost my pictures of that week I was in england! I'm so sad about because these were so nice pictures :D ... but now they're gone... because my computer broke down ... =/
    but now I try to always put the important things on my extarnal hard drive :D to not loose such things again...

    ReplyDelete
  38. Oh =( Did your friends take any pictures there? I lost all my London pictures (january 2008) but I got few back becausse I had saved them in my camera.. But so much is missing and it's so annoying they're still in my head but I can't get them to the pc from my head! lol.
    After my computer broke down, mum bought an external hard drive for me.. And now I've saved everything there so I won't lose them.. Though I'm always scared that I'll manage to get the external hard drive broken too! =(

    ReplyDelete
  39. well some did but it was in 2006 we don't ave any contact anymore it's sad... cause it was so funny... weird how something suddenly breakes up...

    ReplyDelete
  40. Oh.. Would it be impossible to get in touch with them and ask to send those pictures? And that reminded me of that someday I should ask my ex-boyfriend to send me some pics of our trip to Germany & Italy as I lost all mine! But I haven't talked with him much since we broke up and I'm shy to get in touch after a long time..

    ReplyDelete
  41. yes it is kinda impossible the phonenr changed and I don't have their e-mail adresses =/
    I'm sad about but perhaps once I go on my own to London again and take pictures ^^ and save them as I do now =)
    you could write him a SMS that you've lost the pix and want to ask him if he could give them to you :) just forget about your shyness :P

    ReplyDelete
  42. Have you tried to find them on facebook? :D
    Maybe soemday you come to London with me.. Or I'm already living there and you come to visit me! ^__^ haha
    I don't want to send him a SMS.. I'll ask him if I someday bump into him somewhere..

    ReplyDelete
  43. xD that's good idea I haven't thought of facebook yet ^^ haha!..
    what if you never bump into him before you live in London? :P

    btw.. I already chose a song for my new vid (which is nearly ready ^^)... it is Heartkiller... :D

    ReplyDelete
  44. Facebook is a very good way to find old friends.. Almost everyone is on facebook =)
    Well.. There's still couple of years left.. Maybe I'll bump into him. Or maybe not... In that case, maybe I'd call him and ask if we could meet before I leave. I'd say goodbye forever and get the pics. XD

    That's a good choice :D Looking forward to seeing the video!

    ReplyDelete
  45. yes it is xD today I found out that 2 of my driving teachers are on facebook haha ^^...
    they added me today 'cause we've talked about country life :P ^^

    I'll send it to you when it's ready ^^ :)
    hope you like it :D

    ReplyDelete
  46. Hahah cool :D I've looked for my previous 'study advisor' from facebook but he's not there =( I really liked him, me and my friend spent lots of time with him when we were at that school! lol

    Yaay =) I'm sure I'll love it ^__^

    ReplyDelete
  47. perhaps he'll have one day an account here on facebook :D

    xD you haven't seen it now ^^ don't judge before seing it ^^ ..
    perhaps I can send it to you next week already :D

    ReplyDelete
  48. I hope so... :D

    You said it's going to take a long time till you get it done.. XD Next week is soon! Yaay =)) You're good at making videos.. And I've seen your previous videos.. So I can't think you'd create a bad video :DD

    ReplyDelete
  49. I'm sure I can send it to you next week...
    it's already finished but I have to wait a bit with sending because of my data volume on the net ^^so we have only to wait for next week ^^

    ReplyDelete
  50. Wow, you've created it very fast :D Ok.. Let's wait for the next week ^__^

    ReplyDelete
  51. :) yeaH I love to spend my time on things like that :D it's really a hobby of mine :D <33

    ReplyDelete
  52. Nice :D It's just a pity you can't put those stuff on youtube for all the world to see.. Because of the copyright things =(

    ReplyDelete
  53. yes =( so HIM would never know about that ... and can't say anything because sony BMG owns the copyright for the songs... =(

    ReplyDelete
  54. Yeah.. =/ but if you make an account what to use only for uploading those videos.. Then if they delete your account, you wouldn't lose all favourites and friends and messages because they're on other account :D And maybe there wouldn't be any copyright issues and the world would enjoy of your videos for a long time... :D

    ReplyDelete
  55. I don't think that I'm goin to make a 2nd account ... :D perhaps I'll find a solution to it... ^^ like not uploading on youtube .... I could use myvideo.de ^^ but I don't know yet how the copyright stuff is handled there.. I could take a look :D

    ReplyDelete
  56. I haven't ever even heard of myvideo.de :D But yeah let me know if you upload them to somewhere =)

    ReplyDelete
  57. I sure will :D .. xD oh my I haven't taken a look at their copyright stuff xD... but I haven't had time till now.. xD answering every comment takes its time ;D and caring for my farm in facebook also takes some time ^^ and then there is a litte bit of life outside the pc.. xD but I definitely will tell you when I upload the vid somewhere ^^

    ReplyDelete
  58. But if you upload the video there, what's the worst that could happen if there's some copyright things? Well I don't know h ow important your account there is but.. :D
    Yeah I know, answering to comments really takes time! But it's fun ^__^ You still have time to play farmville too? hahaha :D

    ReplyDelete
  59. the worst case that could happen would be that the owner of the rights could go to court with it.. which would be quite expensive.. and I don't want to get a claim...
    I mean normally you aren't allowed to burn CD and give it to someone... O.o

    yes I do but I like to play country life much more than farmville.. ^^ I do have time to play both :P

    ReplyDelete
  60. I guess that doesn't happen often.. That they could go to court with it.. :o
    If you burn a CD and give it to someone, no one get to know about it :D

    Is country life a game in facebook too? hahaha.. :D

    ReplyDelete
  61. yeah country life is a game on facebook too :D
    country life is so much better than farmville...

    yeah it doesn't happen often but when you upload things they can see that u used it "without permission"... it really sucks.. because when you buy the CD you already spent money on it...
    I xD don't like burned CDs... ^.^

    ReplyDelete
  62. Loool.. I don't like any FB games :D

    But when you upload songs to youtube, even though you have paid for them when bought the CD, but others can upload them from youtube for free.. =/
    I don't like burned CD's either! Even though it would be so cheap and easy.. I'd get everything I want, uploadthe songs from youtube or somewhere and burn the CD.. But I don't do it, I want to get the real CD... =)

    ReplyDelete
  63. yeah me 2 I really love CDs and DVDs
    it's kine of an passion I think ^.^ I'm sort of collecting CDs and DVDs I like :D <3

    I think you can block your videos so they can't download the song... but thats a new option ... ^.^ I'm not sure if it works.. but youtube could make something against illegal download... so you still can upload.. because you don't earn money with it... and that's the point why they don't like you to upload songs... because in case you would earn money... you would earn money with stuff that isn't your own

    ReplyDelete
  64. I'm collecting CDs I like too.. I don't have many DVDs though, just few music video DVD's.. + I'm also collecting books I like =)

    Not many has blocked the videos, I haven't seen even a one video what I couldn't have uploaded :D
    I understand it.. Of course it's better that people would buy CD's so the artists would earn money.. not just people listening and uploading from youtube for free

    ReplyDelete
  65. that's true... I mean it really is hard for them to block that free sharing thing... but why shouldn't you upload videos... I mean they could do something so noone can download... they even closed the page youtubex.com where you once could download videos... so why not tryin to block downloading?

    ReplyDelete
  66. It should be possible to block it.. You can't even download songs and videos from myspace, or can you?? Why couldn't youtube block it too :D Or people could chose if the videos they upload are available for downloading..

    ReplyDelete
  67. true would be a nice option to choose... :D
    don't know why youtube doesn't do anything against.. I don't know any prog. to download myspace vids.. ^^ (but I know how to download myspace songs... O.o) perhaps they can't really do anything against there will be enough ppl who know what prog. to write so ppl can download stuff O.o

    ReplyDelete
  68. WEll, maybe it's just impossible to do something against it.. There's always someone who's going to find a way and be able to download.. But you know how to download myspace songs?? Wanna tell me too? :D

    ReplyDelete
  69. uhm I used a prog.. I think it was that one but I'm not sure anymore.. it's been a while
    it it doesn't work aks google ;D perhaps it can help you ^.^

    ReplyDelete
  70. I tried that progr.. But I didn't know how to use it.. But, later I found those songs froms my computer whioch I tried to download from myspace XD So, I can use it! Though I didn't know it.. :') Thanks!! ♥

    ReplyDelete
  71. you're welcome :D it's so useful isn't it? :DD

    ReplyDelete
  72. It definitely is!! :D There's some bands on myspace whose songs aren't on youtube where I could also download them..

    ReplyDelete
  73. yeah :D that's for what whe need it ;D
