After being up and running for 5 days, YouTube decided to block this video of Amy's first listen to The Black Keys - Lonely Boy. This is what we get if you dare to post Jimi Hendrix, Eagles, The Beatles and others. Now you know :)

I am not familiar with the whole process of uploading on YouTube, but I remember watching a video from the YouTube channel David Bennett Piano explaining how to deal with some of these problems, so I thought it might be helpful to leave a link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXSTftoZ6TI

"Some Visibility Restrictions" = "video cannot be seen" Oh.

Jon Payne

That's extremely unfortunate. You usually see that behavior with much older artists or bands that don't know how to computer. I guess Patrick Carney wants to keep his little band in permanent obscurity.

Virgin Rock

"Blocked in ALL territories". Many do block for countries like Russia and Belarus, but some...

Joe Turner

Never liked the Black Keys and now I feel even more justified.

TangoEliott

Well visibility is over rated sometimes

Lee Kennison

How unfortunate. This policy has always seemed ridiculous and short sighted, particularly for a band like this that really could use the greater exposure. I just can't understand how they can't figure out that these reactions are beneficial to them. Likely more the case that their lawyers just use it as a way to exploit an opportunity to fill their pockets, by convincing the artist or label that this ridiculous policy is in their best interests. Fortunately, the majority of artists recognize these reactions are beneficial to them.

Don Henley is a freaking a**hole is why...he is the reason music videos get blocked (PERIOD)!

Yo! Would you believe that I have a similar problem? I have a very small YouTube channel (called SPLIT IMAGE 137) dedicated to Music Appreciation.... I don't make a dime from it... and it doesn't matter! Yep. It can be difficult to get some of these videos past the YCSM (YouTube Copyright Strike Monster)... but I'm happy when something gets through... although... at any moment... one of my videos might be blocked. So... just to say, Vlad... I sure can appreciate the hassles one goes through to get things posted to YouTube... but, it seems to me, so far, that it's worth it, once something gets through.

And yet I saw someone (not Amy) post their reaction to the entire Sgt. Pepper's album without it being taken down. It doesn't seem very consistent.

Please stay even keel Vlad! I, for one, don’t want you and Amy lost in the non sequitur that defines Utube.

How many subscribers does the channel have, and how many views has the video gotten? Also, is the album being played uninterrupted or in chunks of ~4secs?

WayneC

Not many subscribers - around 250. Nearly 10k views. There may have been breaks between songs, but the songs themselves were complete and uninterrupted.

@Wayne thanks, I think it's just "going under the radar". If it's that small and not growing much then it can prob get away with it. That's at least what I've noticed on YT.

DJ Marquis Marc Rambeau du Tacoma

Yeah... Vlad... as a (very small) independent YouTube creator that specializes in pop, rock, and rap of the late 20th century... I sure can attest to what I call the... YouTube Copyright Strike Monster (YCSM, for those who like initials) not liking videos by certain bands. "Now you know..." Yeah. Unfortunately, I already knew. Somehow, Vlad, I think things will actually get worse. I personally have a couple of hundred videos posted, largely by The Beatles, and... I'm just waiting... for... the... axe... to... fall.
