My feature film, Sita Sings the Blues, was removed from German Youtube. I'm aware of no standard protocol for Americans to contest fraudulent takedowns in Germany, so I made this video. Hopefully German Youtube will put Sita Sings the Blues back up. Or maybe GEMA's censor-bots will take this video down, because I intentionally used the same music/movie clips in it!
Germans: Can you see this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzTg7Y...

    I live in Germany and GEMA blows but guess what GEMA? I can bypass the geo-location shit and view whatever I want to using a package like Expat Shield, whether you like it or not. So FUCK YOU.

    Well the problem with GEMA is that mainstream media gets points. So the more a mainstream artist is played in TV or Radio, the more points he/she/it earns and by that the more money this "artist" gets from GEMA. So being not a mainstream artist means getting less money, because of lesser points. In the end plastic mainstream gets the money from GEMA and indiviual artists get less. Sorry for my bad english. Im from Germany and i`m pissed of these hypocritical assholes.
