Maybe you should include text in your comments stating the name of the artist/song-writer and the length of your snippet - that might make it easier for the Google screeners to see that you are complying with fair-use rules and not just do a blanket acceptance of a take-down notice from the copyright holder.
Thanks for the suggestion. I wonder if it would make any difference? I don't think a human checked my video, since they sent me a generic message in Japanese, when it's easy to see I'm an English speaker. Anyway, I'm pretty sure this is just a one off case, due to Prince's way of thinking. It would be useful to know how the process works though.
He is very possessive about his music, I guess. I heard that a woman was sued because she put a video of her child dancing to a song of his. Obviously, her intent was to show off her toddler, not to infringe a copyright. She countersued, but I don't know what came of that.
I thought at first that perhaps the 'kiss' video was too hot,not that some reclusive nut thinks that he is too big to be here,even for a couple of seconds.
