 @Johnny6666 Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.

Here's what happens... These copyright holders are basically outsourcing to companies that use webcrawlers with rudimentary AI. They look for any bits that match the copyrighted music they're hired to take care of. When the webcrawler finds a bit of music, they automatically file a claim. They don't have humans check it to see if it's fair use (which yours obviously is) or even if it is the song the AI suspects--they just file the claim automatically. Even if you challenge it, they do their best to bury you in mounds of legal paperwork just to make you give up. SMPFilms had gone through this years ago with the Mean Kitty song (RIP Sparta).

@Mr_E_Ninja. It's not just anyone--it's bots. Literal pieces of software that analyze the sound profiles of videos looking for any similarity to a copyright held. No human checks whether it actually matches or if it's fair use. Instead, as soon as they get the report from the bot, they automatically file a copyright claim. If you contest, the company completely ignores the meat of the protest and instead simply buries you in paperwork to try to force you to give up. At best, they get paid. At worst, they lose the claim and nothing else happens.

@xBayley Copyright isn't BS. However, what is BS is allowing people and companies to file patently false copyright claims with no repercussions.

@xBayley You'll get no argument from me there. Beato's video covering the issues in Flame's lawsuit against Katy Perry cinches that argument up. Adam Neely also did a great summation of the ridiculousness of that same lawsuit.

Apple was always a company of glued together machines and adapters. The only time Apple was any good was back in the DOS days because of its GUI, image quality and ability to multitask. It did something no one else was doing. Apple has also always charged way too much for too little performance. If you have a product that absolutely needs an Apple OS, you can run a virtual machine. There hasn't been anything that Apple's brought to the table that you can't get elsewhere better and cheaper for a very, very long time. Not since the mid 90's.

I'm glad to hear that my suspicions that this was an absolutely frivolous lawsuit were founded. When I had learned they actually won the suit, I felt like I was the odd man out in an episode of the Twilight Zone.

Don't mind people. Apple is garbage, and it's been garbage for a long time. You're just experiencing a renaissance while they're still stuck in the dark ages as fanboys of a brand that they spend way too much money on.

At first, I was dubious of your claim because it seemed very heavily anecdotal. I'm really glad that you included actual published studies in your argument. I was going to ask if you knew of any. And the primary study you quoted, does it really indicate it's technically possible with that drug? If so, imagine the implications of that.
