We migrated to UA-cam to escape from the overreaching TV corporations
Yet they *still* found a way back
That's capitalism for ya
*BITCHUTE WILL BE OUR NEW HOMELAND*
@@ecrivonlunyx
And socialism will somehow fix this? I also blame us for continuing to deal with youtube's bullshit. We have alternatives. Bitchute is a really good website being supported by very big youtubers yet people still refuse to migrate.

Fact: I stopped doing YTPs in 2013 because one of my King of the Hill parodies was flagged a dozen times, and even caused my account to receive a copyright strike, which hindered my ability to upload newer videos at the time. Also, a friend of mine who's an indie horror filmmaker once uploaded a short film he made which had a 100% original soundtrack that was composed by another friend of ours. His video got automatically copyright claimed by some EDM artist in Japan, because one of the notes in my friend's soundtrack sounded similar to the same synthesizer used in the Japanese channel's song. Thus, they put ads on his video and gave all of the revenue to the EDM musician in Japan.
@@Legomicroman What I've been doing is using FL Studio to make chiptune remixes of preexisting songs - current music and classical - blended together with orchestra instruments. For example, my Nintendo Mosaic Deconstruction video has a long song that's a remix of classic NES songs mixed with classical instrument synthesizers.
@@baron_von_brunk How different are they in terms of composition? I've done chiptune covers that get claimed no matter how different the instruments sound, it just detects the song structure instead, I think.
@@Dv2YT It varies, honestly. I'd the say the majority of my chiptune songs are completely 8-bit with no additional synthesizers or instruments. Most of my chiptune covers never got claimed, but a few did: "Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden, "Dogs" by Pink Floyd, and "Heart Shaped Box" by Nirvana all got claimed and my ad revenue was funneled to their record companies. I also got my chiptune cover of "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" claimed by Disney, but I filed an appeal to prove that the song was actually a public domain classical music song, and not the specific song from Fantasia.
What a fucking joke this place is at least they are monetizing everything they can even though they are making a ton of money

Fun Fact: The UA-cam Copyright Metagame (Part 2) was already uploaded, but it got copyright striked and blocked in all countries.
Disappointed, but not surprised.
Really?
This has to be a joke...right?
I wouldn't be surprised.
*posted one week ago
nah
The irony is that "reaction channels" who systematically steal other youtubers entire material are fine with youtube. But there are no alternative
It's because of the human element. A UA-camr has to make a concious decision to strike another UA-camr's video, whereas rights holders don't, because it's all automated for them.
I saw a UA-camr who posted every single Wolfenstein song. I even saw someone put all of Toy story 4, but I guess it was allowed since it had a giant border around the movie.
@@nana7225 that's not how it's works.
People actually watch those?
@@miepmaster25 You mean reaction videos? Might not be as strong as before (dunno) but many of them had millions of views and made lots of money.
You can actually get monitization back without going to court. Just call their bluff and deal with the video being shut down for 2 weeks. It's a pain, but I've done it and won.

Gaijin, the developers of War Thunder, use to copyright system to remove videos about their game they don't like and are very open about it.
Most recently, a guy did a video about rampant hacking in the community, the video was claimed and removed, and when called out, they said it was policy to remove any content that mentions hacks.
They removed something from a platform they don't own for their own internal policy. Nobody should have that kind of power, but here we are.
but isnt it their right to defend themselves against libel as well?
Corparations are legally people too
That has nothing to do with a system that's sole purpose is to stop content theft.
+Don
It's not libel if it's true. There is no legal recourse that allows for info to simply be dropped into the void because someone thought it was rude.
Look no further. Nintendo did the same with switch modding, blocked worldwide. The cause? 1st party game.

@@nolankanski9116 Maybe emp will explain this in part 2, lol.

There's actually an exception to "Bootlegger".
While it's true that a lot of full episode uploads aren't exactly legal, there are companies who have uploaded full episodes of their shows. In master quality too. Whether it be to thier own channels, or a sister channel for that show. It is hard to tell the difference at times, but it is legal since they DO own the rights.
These channels include WildBrain (LazyTown, The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Johnny Test), TreehouseTV (Little Bear, Franklin, Max and Ruby, Rolie Polie Olie), and of course, channels like Sesame Street and Peppa Pig.
If you ask me, I'd put that somewhere between "Mr. Clean" and "Cold Turkey". While they don't get taken down because of Content ID (they rarely get taken down at all), what usually happens is that the people running the channel block them in certain countries because the distribution rights holder for that country suddenly decided to change thier minds. And it isn't illegal at all because, once again, they own the rights.
you aren't talking about the company's host distributor in that country because it's stupid to even think that company's host going to have more control over rights then the parent company, Then doesn't the distribution rights holder also holds the rights of the show in their country?!!! And also if the owner(who wants to upload the show globally) has just the rights of their show in USA and not copyrighted the material in any other countries or top on that sold it's copyright to other country's distribution rights holder, like an idiot then it doesn't make the company guilty who sold their rights and now wanna have full control over that material....
Shit. Had no idea I could re-watch max and ruby for free.
I'm gonna be right back.
That was mentioned in the video.
That's not Bootlegging by default. That is the property they created. It's Mr Clean.
those channels are doing god's work, especially when the landscape of youtube content for kids just feels like gazing into an abyss of mindless instant dopamine. just because some parents can't afford cable or streaming subscriptions, doesn't mean their kids should be deprived of high-quality media made by people who actually care about telling stories and nurturing childrens' developing minds.
Remember the time a guy uploaded hours worth of white noise, and got a copyright claim?
Yeah...
That pretty much sums it up.
EDIT: My mistake. It was 5 claims.
It got copyrighted by me since I invented silence

hey Emp, I’ve been a fan since the old YTP days and I just want to say your content has taken an amazing turn. I’m way more excited for new UA-cam geographics and rant stuff, it’s much more interesting. What’s important though is that you have fun making the stuff you’re making, not curving your videos to appeal to masses, and I really respect that from any kind of UA-camr nowadays.
thank you, for extremely good content.

Well, he used parody of a transformed song or something like that... parodies are fair use but not if you are a UA-camr. I think it would be easier if we just started to use CC or some other fair use oriented licences.
@@principleshipcoleoid8095 No it's even more ridiculous than that. He had a friend compose his intro and outro, and the people that pulled a copyright claim on him based it on the fact that some of the samples used to make the song were copyrighted under them. Not even instruments are safe.
@@mewnani thanks. I forgot story a little bit.
My personal favorite is when a video is claimed by 30+ different companies.
Mine is when I get claimed by a company that doesn't exist, for a song that doesn't exist! Then they go on to remove my video without me even putting it for review
My favorite is for a song that was made like 200 years ago, its uploaded to youtube and it gets claimed by a non existent company. This happened quite a bit for songs that were featured in Assassin's Creed Black Flag. People uploaded the songs to just enjoy them and non existent companies put claims on them or got the audio for the video removed.
@@FilmsNerf2 those songs may have been written & composed 200 years ago, by the audio in which used and recorded was much more recent.
@@CPorter True but then why didn't the people who composed the modern version of the music flag the video instead of a fake non existent one?

I legit love all of your sponsored segments; they're always fun!
Just like most people, I'm not really one to spend the time to write a comment on a video--I consume the content I decide is worth my time and I get on with my life.
But you've compelled me to comment here, if only in some vain attempt to reach a creator that has managed to leave a bigger impact on me in the meager handful of days I've been perusing your channel than most I've come to watch regularly on this site for the past several years of my life.
While I haven't dug into every single video and every single story on this channel, its content (particularly the more contemporary commentary videos) has presented me with such a compelling and thoroughly internally consistent experience as a new viewer that I just have to follow it up myself somehow. The downward spiral has claimed another victim, and it's been a hell of ride so far. Especially dipping my toes into your old poops, since I'm a huge fan of YTPs (Captain Duckturd is my current favorite YTPer, can't wait for new stuff from him). I'm a bit saddened that you've essentially closed the book on your YTP antics, but that's pretty understandable given all the shit that went flying after a while when you did.
What I really wanted to talk about, though, is the strange position you hold in the UA-cam landscape and the shockingly unique personality that you've become on this site.
The first video to sneak me into this channel was, unsurprisingly, your newest one: this one. I watched it the day it came out, and the memes you invoked in it intrigued me to say the least. I knew there was more to the downward spiral, your editing style, and visual source material. It all comes together to create something capable of causing culture shock, honestly. That includes the stellar music choice for all of the videos I've watched so far.
You've been effectively sitting out of this game called UA-cam for years now, and it's given you and, by extension, your viewers an incredibly interesting perspective on the events that came and went over these past years on UA-cam. You've had the opportunity to experience, spectate, and dissect the many baffling things that have gripped this site and its users. Seeing the events that I saw from afar as what's best described as a UA-cam lurker, I was totally disconnected and unable to really grasp their contexts and finer nuances. The semi-jaded, cynical lens that your channel expresses itself through is something entirely new to me. And that combined with your eagerness to interact with others and to operate constructively despite the coarse language you tend to employ was frankly enough to force my hand in hitting the un-unsubscribe button.
I'm looking forward to your upcoming videos, and the continuation of the epic saga of the downward spiral.

I know I am super late to this video, but as someone studying media production... yep, once attended a seminar on copyright for extra credit, was met with a discussion on claiming people using your content on UA-cam. From everyone in my class to you all, we are about as soulless as you think we are because the industry beats the desire to care out of you.
In all seriousness, this is why I changed my mind away from working in film and tv, to radio.

I’d like to appreciate the early YTP creators, you’re the key factor of why memes exist and why I like memes at all.
I had some videos blocked that were clearly fair use. When I appealed them, they told me that they didn't care about Fair Use and still were gonna block the videos. Now, as a small creator, I didn't want to go toe-to-toe legally with these people, so I just moved on. Reactor gave me some advice, which was to never use a clip for more than 10 seconds. Since taking that advice, none of my reviews have ever been flagged.
Can I copyright claim UA-cam in its entirety and then give it back to the people?
In theory, yes. But you need to have solid fucking proof to back up such a claim.
In a lot of cases the defender ( youtube ) will probly stall it out long enough untill you run out of money to pay the lawyer and then you pull out thus ending the case.
Calm down there, Bane.

Copyright needs to be abolished and STAY abolished.
It was never about artists rights in the first place anyway (it was always a sneaky censorship tool) and at best it only protected the shittiest of publishers who would fuck the artists (that the copyright was supposedly made for) over relentlessly with.
This is also ignoring that copyright (and patents) lets someone who did something decades ago collect money on said work that they've often done no work on since.

Waaaaay back in the day, like no more than a year into UA-cam's existence, I decided to upload my favorite clip from Late Night with Conan O'Brien. I didn't know anything about copyright laws and was under the impression anything was fair game. I ripped the clip from a file sharing website and very proudly uploaded it. 24 hours later I didn't just receive a copyright strike from UA-cam, I received a cease and desist type email from NBC Universal threatening me with legal action. It scared the crap out of a young me and I immediately deleted the video.
I have rewatched this series of videos more times than i would like to count. This trilogy of videos is just fucking amazing.
Something I've slowly been realizing is that the internet has, ironically, made it more likely than ever that noteworthy media vanishes forever.
Original UA-cam content is remarkably ephemeral, between copyright claims of varying bogusness and the occasional creator breakdown followed by mass deletion of videos.
Streaming services for TV and movies are constantly swapping who owns the rights to what, while driving down the demand for physical releases, meaning something could very easily vanish off the net and not have a physical version anywhere.
And the general attitudes of digital media companies does not leave me with any faith that if, say, that book I just bought on Kindle were to get wiped from their servers in a freak accident, that Amazon would do anything to get it back or compensate me.
I've started to become a media hoarder. Do I wanna watch a TV show? I'll buy the DVD or Blu-Ray, and if I can't I'll pirate it and keep it on a hard drive, safe and sound where no one can go "Netflix has the rights. No wait, Hulu has the rights. No wait, Amazon has the rights." I don't use Spotify, I purchase Mp3s from Google Play and iTunes, and keep them on SD cards, because I no longer have faith that the music I like will be there tomorrow.
I'm seriously worried that one day, 30 years from now, I won't be able to enjoy the media I like now, even though it's no problem for me to go out and buy a copy of basically anything major from 30 years ago now.
Exactly why I'm worried about this new digital era we seem to be slowly ushering into.
You too huh? I fear the day when we will no longer be able to own music. Instead just permission to play it. Scary eh? I've been saving up mp3 and cds too. Need to get a hard drive soon.

You can just copy them onto spare hard drives, SD cards, flash drives, etc. A 64gb flash drive will run like $15 USD, and can hold enough music that you could play music nonstop for a week and never repeat a song. You can make a spare copy, keep it in a storage locker or at a family member's house or something, and have a backup. And since it's standardized computer file with a non-proprietary format, it should still work on any computer made after the early 2000s. Assuming you'll live a full life and die sometime in the 2090s, you'll still be able to either play Mp3s on whatever sort of computer we use then, or be able to get a second or third year computer science student to program an Mp3 player in exchange for a case of beer.
If you're a part of the very small crowd who can, in fact, tell the difference between an Mp3 and high quality vinyl records, there are other computer formats. Look into lossless audio compression. Downside is that lossless formats require a lot more space.
After that, well, it gets tricky. CDs are easy to burn with a computer with a CD drive, but are easy to scratch up. Cassette tapes are bulky and wear out with enough use. Not to mention, tape decks aren't mass-produced like they used to be, and have a lot of moving parts that will eventually break. Vinyl records are even bulkier than cassettes, can get scratched, and require specialized equipment to copy.
Is one of the secret forbidden copyright techniques turning the simpsons green?
yes.
yES.
No that just means that they have entered combat with an enemy stand
I guess you can say that the copyright system is going on a
*DOWNWARD SPIRAL*
Ah..ahm..yeah
So is the rest of the legal system.
I made a video once that was in the "Mr. Clean" category. It was an interview with a band in a restaurant. When I uploaded it, I got a copyright claim for the *music that was playing in the background in the restaurant.*
Can we just boycott youtube? Their pseudo-monopoly is disturbing.
Jeff Bezos better get to expanding twitch to be a direct competitor to youtube
@@danielbojkovski723 twitch sucks too has some dumbass rules like feet and shit
The more creators move to LBRY, the more pressure we can put on UA-cam.
We blew our chance years ago.
@@imveryangryitsnotbutter It's time for a network that respects free speech. BitChute is the best alternative to UA-cam.
I think you missed an important point about copyright and poops;
Posting a full film on UA-cam is for people who haven’t seen it yet and taking away a potential audience member.
Poops use the film that a viewer has already seen to poke fun at something. The poop assumes you’ve already seen it, isn’t replacing the film and is being used for something the potential audience member isn’t going to find in the original.
Yeah ikr
Like with these meme song mashups, you'd have to of heard both songs originally otherwise you wouldn't really get anything from the mashup.
And if it gets popular enough, people will watch the original material just to understand the content .
The viddoe style is so freakin creative! Like im madly impressed n inspired!! Much love and respect, and very appreciated info!
#downwardspiral
OMG, ELP IN THE BACK, RECOGNISED IT AND IT'S A BLESS, THANK YOU SO MUCH💓
How long until these companies make a song where the singer is just reading a dictionary aloud so they can claim all the videos in English?
How do you know that isn't in the works? I mean, it would be one hell of a long play (especially if it were unabridged), but they are scummy enough to try that.
Italian it is then.
UA-camr: *breathes*
VIACOM: hippity hoppity, I shall destroy your hopes and dreams
?
As Expected
But that doesn’t even rhym-
Viacom: ** 👋 *REBUTTALS ARE COPYRIGHTED TOO*
Give this man a TV rant show. great vid mate
2:40 this is a super good way to change the song props to you emp
UA-camr: *Breathes*
UMG: Stay out of my territory.
I have been saying the same opinion about copyright all over UA-cam (you probably have seen one of my comments) but i will repeated it for a 54th time, copyright isn't about protecting original authors anymore (or for the last 50 years) is about stealing money and ideas from other similar ideas, censure public opinions and to stably a legal monopoly
"We'll dwell into it in part 2"
Inb4 UA-cam creates a system that can find copyrighted materials through simple filters like color changes
This was fantastic. Great job.
the copyright system has been on a downward spiral and now it's lost it completely
It was never good though.
Then again, this copyright system is what stops UA-cam from becoming another CDA PL; an unpopular site with tons of piracy.
Remember when the recommended videos on the right would actually show more videos related to the video you just watched? Instead of showing you your entire Recommended section from the front page like it does now. Those were good times. Times when I could actually find new videos.
I found a new reviewer, her name is "justanotherreviewer". ua-cam.com/channels/Ors2LLIsh4bWllQldByVNw.htmlvideos she's small enough right now that even one comment and like on every video would help immensely. She also did an actually good review of Yooka Laylee, so I quite like her. This is the only real way to find new channels now, by getting them from other randos online. Or by stumbling onto their comment like I did.
I realize now what i find so appealing about your channel. The well versed and informed content that you do. It took me a while but it had finally hit me, theres another youtuber who does archives for speedrunning world records, Summoning Salt, his videos are like documentaries the way he formats them. While i was watching your Dale Earnhardt video you had used the same musical transition he does for most of his videos and it clicked. (around the 25 minute mark if anyone cares) tl;dr Thank you for producing higher quality content thats well researched and versed.
Can’t wait to see EmpLemon make a vid about UA-cams new ad system.
We gotta find a way so that youtubers can safely copyright claim their own videos and take all ad revenue from their own video. Thats the real metagame
How 2 win:
Create Smurf company
Upload each video you're about to upload to content id
Upload video
Claim it
Get revenue even if your not monetized
This actually has me thinking, I think someone should do a video on this.
If that actually happens, UA-cam WILL SHART ITSELF SILLY!
XD
That sounds fucking amazing.
The McMangos shoutout yesss dude you're legit (besides all these dope vidumentaries)
Great content as usual. I really think UA-cam is dying because they are slowly pushing creators down, while propping up companies. I hope a new medium comes our way where we don't have to worry about being throttled, or copyright striked. Keep it up.
Yeah bruh TheFatRat is like my favourite artist I have no idea how somebody copyright claimed his own song
If rusty cage can be told he's not rusty cage by twitter because he took the piss out of a cheese company, anything can happen.
You're one of few UA-camrs I can honestly say I can fully watch the videos of without getting bored within a few minutes. I don't even have to care much about the subject in manner because your videos are always highly enjoyable and I look forward to each upload.
I like how this struggle between good and evil forces content creators to push the boundaries. They'll evolve and survive.
The only downside is that old videos might dissapear entirely when we die. Like two armies fighting in historic ruins only to have the ruins completely destroyed. Gone forever.
Siao Wun not anymore we have technology (ytmp4)
