Record companies would sue music teachers in classrooms if they could.
You honor, We will prove through preponderance of evidence, that this "teacher" was teaching "children" in a "classroom" the Major key of C, which we have used extensively through out our vast catalog of music, and therefor infringed upon our intellectual property rights.
They do.....
They can and they have. Disney has sued teachers and school systems for playing their movies for non educational reasons, pretty bs.
Technically because of the lack of fair use laws in Europe, they can sue any teacher that attempts to even play one example...
They'd rather stop new music from being created than lose a single cent they might be able to earn. This proves copyright doesnt protect artistic creation anymore. I see no reason for it to exist at this point, you dont need corporations producing and distributing albums so they shouldn't be protected.

Absolutely no chance they watched the video. It's the first appearance of (what they THOUGHT) was the Dark Horse ostinato in the video. They probably watched up to there, went "haha, gottem, easy money", then filed the claim, disregarding the rest of the video's content.

Didn’t anybody ever teach you to not talk about things you have no idea about?
2 years late but this was highly amusing to watch unfold at the time. Its also a lesson on how dangerous the music industry is with publishing companies wuick to the trigger on filing copyright claims for songs they don't even own.
There really needs to be a revision to the DMCA that allows defendents to receive double the monetary value in damages for every false filing made (and have legal fees covered). At least then content creators can get some compensation for having to deal with a publishing companies shit.
DMCA should be an innocent until proven guilty thing. Nothing happens to the offending content until the claimant can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the infringed material both belongs to them, and falls outside of fair use.

OMFG man returning here after your new copyright video to remember the lawsuits and omg I'm speechless by how stupid/ironic this is xD
Back in April, I posted a video where I set up my drumset left-handed and played it for the very first time. I got a copyright claim; I initially assumed it was for the drumless track I used (because sometimes copyright free actually isn't). But when I clicked on the copyright claim, it was actually from (surprise, surprise) Warner Music Group, claiming that I'd used their copyrighted content - which they said was "The Jam" by Graham Central Station, which also appears **nowhere** in the video. I looked more carefully; they claimed that the portion in dispute runs at a point in the video where the only audio is me (and ONLY me) taking my fumbling first steps at playing left-handed. It's just a drum beat. Played by me. Left-handed. And not well. And not at all similar to the beat played in "The Jam". What an absolute load of [BASS]. And shame on RUclips for playing along 100%.
This is fine, everything is fine, copyright law is fine as it is, nothing to see here.

@@SethbotStar As far as i understood it, the point of the video they sued because of was not when comparing to Joysful, but to a part that was played by the video maker. They didn't failed to distinguish joyful from their song, but the play in the video to their song.
Stefan Ionescu the copyright claim was filed by the defendant WB, representing Katy Perry's Dark Horse.
Flame was suing Katy Perry (WB); Adam defended Katy (WB); WB claimed Adam's video, based on the section of it where Flame's Joyful Noise played.
This might as well have been used as evidence by the plaintiff.
This is the most biggest and the weirdest betrayal of all time
The music industry: "make profit not friends"
Former friends of the music industry: "well ok then"
So to recap:
Adam defends Warner-Chapel’s right to Dark Horse.
Warner-Chapel loses right to Dark Horse.
Warner-Chapel proceeds to stab Adam in the back, trying to claim his video for using the melody of Dark Horse, but instead cites the part where he plays Joyful Noise, the song they claim not to have stolen, even though they no longer have the legal rights to either melody.
"Truly, you have a dizzying intellect." 🤣🤔🤯
You missed the extra part where in the lawsuit too, where they claimed that it wasnt even their melody, but instead a background sound - then claimed the video because it was the melody.
Lol

Xplora213 legally no. That’s double jeopardy. unless the legal team files it as a separate claim under different circumstances. Besides, it would look more like Joyful’s team would rather file a complaint on Warner so that they would receive the revenue rather than going through the arduous process of filing another lawsuit, much less a lawsuit with similar circumstances. But that’s just my two cents. I could be wrong tho, so if anyone could correct me on this, much appreciated.

I uploaded my Hawaiian vacation video onto RUclips a couple years ago. It was flagged for copyright infringement. It was all my own footage and editing, so how could I infringe? It was a 20 minute video, but a 16 second clip of our favourite bar had some song playing in the background on the bars loudspeaker system, while my sister was talking about our day. It happened to be a Beach Boys song, and the youtube algorithm sniffed it out. I appealed, because it doesn't make sense that some corporation can now monetize and cash in on views of my vacation video! The corporation didn't back down, and neither did I, so it ended up that they TOOK MY VIDEO DOWN COMPLETELY as if they "owned it" and I got a strike on my channel.

You CAN take a copyright claim up to the courts and sue the company, but the majority of people don't have money to throw around on lawsuits let alone the time and patience to deal with the hassle of setting up a lawsuit. That's the only reason companies can just false claim YTers and not get in trouble for it. Even if the drop the claim later, it doesn't matter since they still get your ad money up until that point. YT or the courts definitely need to set up a system to make the claimants not get any of the revenue while the claim is being challenged and to make the companies pay back said revenue if they drop the claim.

Behavior like that of Warner Chappell, makes me wish I could get back all the time I have spent in my life shaking my head.
remember kids: corporations are not your friends
I see noone here pointing out that corporations are just acting out ip laws.
We should probably blame the enabler too right?
@@peterlauch6172 yes, we should blame everyone
capitalism is the answer to all our problems, let us pray for the free market and its omniscient benevolence. For it is almighty and good and powerful, it shall save us all. Brothers, let us pray
@@YM-zf8mt whats wrong wth you
@@YM-zf8mt but most "capitalist" countries operate on a mixed market system, not a free one.
the phrase "it really do be a bruh moment" works so well in this situation

RUclips: Here, watch this video.
"I never thought the company of face eating leopards would eat MY face!"
This here is some level 7 spicy copyright nonsense
They dont deserve actual musicians support for their musical productions in song writing
Warner Bros coming through with that Freeform Avant-garde Copyright Claiming 🔥🔥🔥
Or Karma? 🤣 Defend the devil.
This is insane, this sounds like a joke with how many layers of ridiculous this has in it
Sean Demers I first read this comment as “many lawyers of ridiculousness” and that seemed perfectly appropriate.
how many layers of irony are you on
like, maybe 5 or 6 right now, my dude
you are like a baby, watch this
SUCC
I feel like corporations do stupid things to their own detriment every other day these days, it's hard for me to be surprised...
Best revenge: countersue and settle for tens of thousands.

Im glad you made the video. You should have, and you have our support. Keep up the great work, and keep us updated!
I think these frivolous claims, like frivolous lawsuits, should be actionable. They caused actual harm by forcing you to deal with a fraudulent claim.
They are actionable, but the legal maneuver is expensive for a lot of people. A quick-counter-claims court to deal with these things, now with so many low-resource artists and creators, should be available to contest frivolous copyright claims.
@@gedalyahreback2133 Then these corp fuks will push the lawsuit all the way to supreme court, the whole time both sides pay to be there and the loser pays everyone back
@@JumboCod91 oh, sweet sweet summer child.
@@JumboCod91 yes, but will he be able to convince a lawyer to go against warner?
Lindsay Ellis has a video with Devin from LegalEagle on counter-claims.
What we need to do is stop buying anything from Warner.
That's like the Wright brothers suing a bird for copying their idea!
Someone get this over to Legal Eagle, I'd like to see what he has to say about it
Damn a Adam Neely and Legal eagle collab would be awesome!
yes !!
Adam plz
BEST IDEA EVER
SECONDED
“Warner stole Joyful Noise”
“No I didn’t”
“Yes you did”
“Fine, but now I’m going to steal Joyful Noise again from someone else”
no joy FOR YOU
@@chronosschiron Sad noise.
@@TheGalacticWest
stop using any of there shit im getting sick of people that use stuff thats too simular or what not get original and drop it into content id and prob solved
1100 vids and no claims or strikes
have a nice day
@@chronosschiron what are you on about
@@TheGalacticWest
what are you on ?
Wow. I'm just seeing this now. How did the matter end? Did they apologize and refund the money or they kept on insisting on their claims?
The top thing that needs to change about RUclips is that it should be accountable for all the false claims it allows
That's exactly why the music industry is completely dead. Honestly, this system is completely broken
rotten... indeed
Imagine if they claimed this video too for the same 10seconds...
The trap has been B8'ed...
Would be hilarious
Just give em time :D
I wouldn’t put it past Warner Chappell.
WOO I randomly found another Neely...
Edit: thanks for the vid, I liked it, keep up the good work. LOVE for the Music
"It's totally insane" - a sign of the times.
Writers dream of coming up with this amount of irony in a story.
As an aspiring author, that is 100% correct
You can't make this shit up XD
