  • The RIAA strikes!!!!!!!

    This is CRAZY.
    I had a retirement video posted on my Youtube for someone to review (it was for her Mother-in-law). One of the songs that I used (which she requested) was God is Real by India Arie.

    The video was a fairly simple slideshow that I happened to leave up (I forgot about it).


    SOOOO, that brings to me to about five minutes ago...

    I received an e-mail from YouTube:


    A copyright owner has claimed content in one of your videos
