There goes my jay-z/oasis remix video with 60,000+ views.

Well that's a downer before bedtime.

do you get any sort of reason why from them or does it just happen?

and have they just removed them or does somebody else have the right to use them at all?

I got an email telling me that they've been removed due to a copyright complaint from viacom.

My other mixes have been okish.

This one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAbMHiHhaK8), for example, just has a note saying it contains material from universal and its blocked it some countries. This one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A9GELj_WMg) has the same rules but its also not aloud to be embedded on other sites.

They took down another one. Incidental, it was a beastie boys one.

Not sure if its related but I did put these youtube links on last.fm too last week. Last.fm thats owned by cbs. CBS thats connected to viacom....

Also, it seems you can still view the videos if they're embedded on a site. Which they (http://www.hippomothamus.co.uk/2008/06/jay-z-99-problems-oasis-remix.html) are (http://www.hippomothamus.co.uk/2008/07/two-new-ting-tings-mixtape-videos.html).

Also, on an unrelated matter, if you look at the url of this thread then you'll notice its thread number "90210". I actually randomly typed that in today and got a little scared that it was my own thread.
