WHAT HAPPENED TO LEZBEEPIC? - Goodbye

Check the Patreon for the upcoming collection of old videos + some unfinished BETA's: https://www.patreon.com/lezbeepic Statement I made to appeal: Dear Madam, Sir, I believe the removal of my videos was a mistake. My videos fall under "fair use". Fair use is a legal doctrine that says you can reuse copyright-protected material under certain circumstances without getting explicit permission from the copyright owner. Firstly, my content is transformative. As per section 107 of the Copyright Act, works (in my case, my videos), have to be deemed transformative. This means that the work must add a new meaning, a new message, or a new expression ( Campbell, 510 U.S. at 579. ). My videos do exactly that; by using different custom music and mixes & and heavily altering the copyrighted footage, a whole new work emerges. There's a new meaning added, it's not a cookie-cutter copy of the original material. Instead, the content created undergoes a heavy transformation in which the material gets subdued to a detailed creative process and is transformed; further illustrated by my videos being classified as "remixes". Secondly, the effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work. Whether a work falls under fair use or not, is greatly affected by how much the market value of the copyrighted work is affected by the use in question. To illustrate that my content does not harm your organization financially, I'd like to touch upon a few points. My channel is demonetized; meaning I don't profit directly from using the copyrighted footage. In fact, via YouTube's Content ID system, the profit of the ads on my videos goes to you, Toei Animation, and the other original artists such as music artists. Instead of harming you financially, you benefit from it! Apart from the revenue, my content keeps fans in touch with the original material. My content is not a replacement, it's a transformed add-on. Nobody will watch my videos to get a sense of the original material, no, there's a new meaning added upon it. And because I don't infringe or belittle or make fun of the original work, it's essentially a positive, free form of advertisement to further incite enthusiasm in the audience for the source material. To add to this, I always encourage the viewer to check out the original release. I hope to have adequately explained why I deem my videos falling under "fair use", and in turn, why they should all be reinstated.
