A friend in Baltimore is a classical pianist, and his YouTube videos or Beethoven sonatas have routinely been pulled as violating the copyrights of Warner music. He appeals, noting that a) the performance is his and b) Beethoven's been gone for about two centuries, long after even America's absurd copyright laws. The video's always reinstated, and then the next one's blocked due to Warner's claims against Mozart and Clementi.
