Title: Ok, what the heck.

All three videos were flagged as containing music copyrighted by Sony. I filed a dispute for all three, and now all three say "All content owners have reviewed your video and confirmed their claims to some or all of its content".

I dunno.

So sue them
So perform non-violent civil disobedience on their claim
Darn. I can't easily see a way out of that dilemma.

I guess I can live with it as long as they don't mute my videos.

I'd still like to know why though.

Is there anything I can do then to help out? Apparantly I must send them a physical letter to fix this.

I can hear sound, is it just parts that are muted? Also, could it be the ship radio that's causing problems? Perhaps Sony owns any rights to Speak's music on the ship radio, but I kind of doubt that.

Maybe Sony pays people to watch YouTube videos all day, and if they contain any music, to flag them as containing copyrighted content belonging to Sony.

think how much this would explain

Sadly, this actually makes sense.

I have not watched the entirety if the videos, but I don't believe any sections have been muted.

On a note, on occasions while recording, a family member elsewhere in the house is listening to a radio. I made sure when recording that it was not picked up, and I have listened to the videos at max volume during quiet sections and could not hear the music. I doubt something that quiet could trigger anything like that.

Edit- No one else was home when recording part 16.

Here is exactly what the notice currently says:

Maybe you could enquire further, ask Sony to point out which song/s on the videos they own. :P

Yo, Sony, I'm disappointed in you and all, but, I gotta say, Disney Channel is the greatest fail of all time. Of all time.

But Sony's a close second. See, this is why I hate YouTube. BUT you can put this in your comments to make Sony unable to screw with your video.

Oh, so naive! You actually think Youtube cares about fair use.  C)

I take it you have never heard of That Guy With the Glasses?

I got both my rickroll vids viewable in all countries by ranting about fair use...

There is a group of dipwits on Youtube right now who is trying to drive off Ranters and Let's Players by making false copyright claims. The best thing to do is contest it. The trolls don't have the guts or faked credentials for their claims to hold water by that point.

Quoting the Free Use Clause is never effective. Unless you're a Youtube Partner and make money with your channel, Google doesn't really give a damn about you.

Hey, I have an idea for a little experiment.
Remove the videos from your channel, and then re-upload the same videos, while claiming that you have removed the copyrighted content in the comments section.

If they aren't taken down again, then you have proof that Sony are just being dicks. C)

I happen to check on the videos today, and they now have that little music field under the description filled out, identifying the music in the video as songs from Speak. Although why Sony claims the copyright and blocked it in Germany, I have no idea.
