| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | pauleanne | 9/29/11 9:55 AM | I just had a video taken down when "Evergreen Social Media Associates" had a copyright complaint. It was a video of our little girls skating at our local rink. I as well would like to know why it was taken down. This is a little sketchy. |

| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | GibsonAndVega | 9/29/11 10:56 AM | That statement in the policy is a lie. YouTube does not actually pass on the complainant's contact information to the alleged infringer. They used to do so in the past, but no longer. I don't know when exactly that changed. |
| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | geissbockhennes | 9/29/11 11:01 AM | Then YT should change the statement, but fast. Google employees, your chance to forward an important matter. |
| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | jouxplan | 9/30/11 6:24 AM | Yes, it is the statement I m referring to.

You at least were given more info than I was. I am now very tempted to write to them directly. What do people think - is it worth my while writing to them to apologise for my infringement and ask |
| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | ebbixx | 9/30/11 10:35 AM | From their vaguely worded web site Evergreen appear to represent "branded properties" -- things like cartoon characters.

| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | Shmeeb | 10/4/11 12:43 PM | I too just had a video pulled fom Youtube by Evergreen even though it has been up for years. The video featured my 4 year old daughter singing along to a Supertramp song. It was actually quite funny. Thought I would let you know. |

So I guess the issue is Supertramp. Interesting that Universal Music Group are 'content |

Supertramp is a bit more money hungry than even Metallica... please remember this for future reference. |
| Re: Where is the option to contact a copyright holder - as is suggested on the copyright tips page? | Spring Street | 11/11/11 9:36 AM | Supertramp are of course money hungry, and rightly so ... it's their creative material, and why should they give others permission to use it for free?
