      I still do not encourage or endorse committing any sort of grand larceny or theft on the internet just because you know there is a light sentence for stealing music money from other users. 5 years and 10 months in prison will feel even longer when you actually experience that prison time for yourself.

      Wow.

They do not take cheaters of the copyright system seriously enough to de-incentivize these offenses from happening again simply because they think they are big enough to recover from this. UA-cam wrongfully assumes that no grand larceny will be grand enough to shut them down forever, not even shut them down for a short week.

    As a musician I cannot tell you how frustrating it is how easily some random person can just claim your music.

It's almost always settled outside courtroom at much much lower sum as most scammers will have very little if any money that can be connected to them.

      grand larceny charges are NOT 10k, it's like a few hundred/thousand... i got hit with grand larceny over like $800 that i didn't even take(the fuckin kid blacked out drunk and put it in his glove box and literally was dropping 100s on the ground and lost soooo much money and then him and his mom were mad so called the cops and said we stole it, which is why it ended up getting dropped) so it's ABSOLUTELY not 10,000.
