That is a fucking shame, Urbansteel, all those video's, it happened to me a while back, when I tried to get a new account, I had to set up a new E-mail address, I couldn't use the old one, anything Stones is very up in the air, I found out it was Sofa (Ed Sullivan) entertainment that was making a stink about my Ed Sullivan show video's, also Allen Klein's people is another making a stink about anything Stones from their era with them.
With no reason letting you know, it doesn't make sense, they should give you a explanation.

Petty bastards.

I notice there's now a Rolling stones Youtube channel, although there's not much on it so far apart from a few promo videos. I wonder is this connected.

I really hope they dont disappear up their own arses and develop the same prima donna attitude to Youtube that the likes of Van Morrison and Prince have taken.

Not for the first time, it appears the Stones are doing their best to ensure that as few people as possible get to experience and enjoy their music.

Thanks for all your efforts. Quite frankly, they don't deserve you.

A terrible shame. No wonder rock and roll is dead. The attitude of some artists really crack me up. It's like they fucking really do hate their fans. Why doesnt some one like Van Morrison just jam in his lounge room? If he hates his audience so much, hates interviews and being a celeb, why bother? Just jam for yourself in the privacy of your own homes.

Oh no, when they NEED us, when their last Weight Watchers or lemon detox diet bills come in, THEN they fucking want us. Then it's "I love you New York", or Newark or New SOuth Wales. Then they fucking want you.

Top of the world - "Sign an autograph? Get stuffed and here's my minder to belt the crap out of you".

Bit of a dry spell - "Oh, i really connect with my fans and have a special relationship with them and of course i'll do a 7am radio interview".

I will long argue into the night that many of these artists still think it's 1975. Record companies are a thing of the past. It's all gonna change. Places like youtube gives people access to material they might never find in a life time. It might make people care about some one's artistic endeavours. Might make some one buy a cd, dvd or even cough up the cash to see some one live on stage. I mean, how precious. Prince??? Fuck, what is it? 1986??? Who cares about his bony ass?

Anyway, youtube has been ruined since it got sold. Some thing else will pop up, and for a year or two, it will be all fresh again. UNtil some suited suck pulls out a writ. The truly odd thing is that so many great clips had never been available. Like, when was the plan to have them officially released? Hmmmm? Whats the harm in showing a rare Stones show if they aint ever gonna release it for us to see? Whats the big frigging secret?

ya know what? I am kinda over all this. At 46, i am more content to jam with mates or disturb my neighbours with my incredible drumming & strumming skills. I'd rather make my own noise.

And, if some one likes it, and i get a million hits on youtube, i am gonna pull all the vids and tell everyone to get stuffed!

I got closed down 3 times. First time was Jan., second time Feb. and again 2 weeks ago.
I had 700 videos, mostly Stones.

First time was a claim from Promotone, second time was the Ed Sullivan video people, this time it's Abkco regarding a Not Fade Away video with Brian Jones.

You have to file a counter claim. If things go smoothly, you should have your account back in 14 working days.
I'm waiting for mine to be opened again. It does get to be a drag, though, because my account has been closed most of this year, due to the claims by those people.

Youtube will also tell you why your account was closed but you have to ask them.

Posting that "Fair Use" disclaimer didn't do anything. I had it on my channel also but the people putting in the claim just ignore it.
But you CAN get your channel back.
Like I said, you just have to file a counter claim with youtube.

Thanks for that Ultraviolet, I had no ides one could fight those people since they had the copyright claim, but it sounds like it does take a lot of time to get one's account back.

Am I right?

Thats why I only post my own videos on Youtube. And if anyone copies my stuff I really dont care! Once it's out there in cyberspace it belongs to everyone. IMO. But big corps who have paid for the rights do have a legitimate claim so I guess you cant blame them for protecting their property. The question the corps ask: IS IT LEGAL and the question we ask: IS IT RIGHT? Just because its legal doesnt make it right, IMO.

I agree Bitch, but in my particular case I don't know what the fuck Sony Music Entertainment is claiming.

Footage is by Albert Maysles and it's authorized, recently he and ABKCO released the first generation video tapes in the Ya Ya's 40th adition, the copyright is NOT by ABCKO either check the Ya Ya's 40th credits. It's NOT owned by Sony Music Entertainment
Music is by Jimi Hendrix and the copyright is not owned by the real bitch* (Janie "Hendrix) or ABKCO or any other, is public domain. It's NOT owned by Sony Music Entertainment
The cover of Ya Ya's is owned by ABKCO but what I have there is "art" inspired by the cover, not the cover, in the worst case it is owned by ABKCO. It's NOT owned by Sony Music Entertainment

* You're the lovely and beloved Bitch
