apparently the rightsowner for the video in the background is running around youtube sending DMCA takedowns for live pixies performances that featured the video.
nevermind that the camera had metered for the foreground and so the video was completely blown out, rendering it completely indecipherable.
so anyway, luckily i own FCE and i know how to use it well enough to redact this person's video.
i had originally put his/her youtube username in the redaction but then i thought, why drive traffic to this loser's page? if he/she wanted traffic or revenues then the rational thing to do would have been to ask me to link to his/her page, or perhaps turn on ads and demand the revenue, or something like that.
so now the video is ruined, and homeboy has no referrals or traffic. sorry about that, pixies fans.
What really sucks is when other people steal your work and then some clueless fan labels you an asshole for enforcing a valid copyright.
