Hey all! Today I got a message from YouTube that the bass backing track of Bryan Adams' Summer of 69 was deleted from my channel by the request of the copyright holder (the record company). This also came with a first copyright strike against my channel, which means that if I get two more strikes, my channel will be deleted from YouTube.
I've removed the cover version from my channel myself since I feel leaving it up is just waiting for another strike to happen. Going forward I'm going to have to be a bit pickier about what songs I'm going to do. It sucks, I think it's dumb since artists actually make money from covers, but ultimately, they're in the right to block or delete any cover they want.
