As I recall, you had forgotten about YouTube's "Content you submit must not include third-party intellectual property (such as copyrighted material)" rule. Another video creator complained to Cloanto. Consequences: YouTube standard procedure. Blame: no one but yourself.

But one of the vids was a 100% Fair use video.
Codified in Section 107 of the Copyright Act, fair use allows persons other than the copyright owner to make certain limited uses of copyrighted material without the copyright owner's permission (17 U.S.C. § 107). It was a 30sec clip re-edited from a 20min vid.

Plus a lot of the Amiga adverts and video would of not been found if it was not for other users uploading them. Do we really want that to happen?

Amiga docs / films have improved a lot thanks to efforts of the Amiga community/ fans finding past adverts / introduction vids.

Finally I know this is no defence, but they where adverts, created to advertise the Amiga, to get people to buy or look into the Amiga, I was only trying to do the same thing. Plus they where created and paid for by a company long gone.

But anyway I do understand the law. I just still feel it’s a shame.
