I used to edit YouTube videos (especially during the Tube’s pre-Google era and mainly about darling Jeremy Brett). Every now and then I would get a notification about problems regarding the copyright of the music I used for the background…
Nowadays the copyright question is once more of special interest to me, though this time around it is regarding my plans for promoting my work as a writer as well as singer via YouTube videos.
Yeah, marketing yourself/your work online seems to be of an ever increasing importance for people like me/us, and often this does indeed include YouTube (or Vimeo or Dailymotion etc.). The more important to get a bit educated regarding actual copyright regulations, right?
(For my German language readers: Für das Video könnt Ihr Untertitel in diversen Sprachen einstellen, u.a. auch in Deutsch.)
A vigorous yes on Jeremy Brett. With all due respect to the Cumberbach mania, Jeremy will always be Holmes to me.

Oh, yes, I just love Jeremy!! He has actually had a huge impact on my life, though I never got to meet him in person. One of these days I really have to write about him. Benedict is phantastic, but Jeremy is simply and will always be a league of his own… 🙂
