    Did you make an actual deal with them or is this just what you think? YT works simple. You upload something, if it gets detected by the bots (or the owner) they are able to monitize the video (and not the uploader). If the owner doesnt want it on YT he takes it down (even after months of making money out of it). Also lots of your videos are bootlegs so i'm not sure why all your videos are monitized (its the frans n roses channel, right?)

    Lot of my videos where claimed manually, bootlegs as in fan filmed? True but the music in this footage is still owned by GN'R / universal. I also learned they renewed the contract because there was enough to be earned of the old songs on YT and other places

    So, there's this version where the Frans N' Roses channel steals the video, removes the watermark and then adds the giant "Get Your Dick Out Axl" watermark. Kinda lame.

    Yeah it is very lame. No need for the watermark. Frans did not free this bootleg.

    Dude at least i admit in the description box i ripped the video from that guy unlike the people who rip my videos and post them on Facebook or whatever and cut of the watermark and without proper crediting. Did u ever remaster any video with good results and synched it properly with decent audio? Well if you do than u should know how much time it takes to get nice results. And the sign says: AXL GET YOUR VIDEOS OUT and thats just a statement to GnFnR to release some fuckin' proshots asap. And now with this epic Saskatoon video u might see the importance of that.

  3. In the last few days, I had several copyright claims on my videos and I do have them on almost all videos stating i can have them uploaded but Geffen or whatever company will monetize them which is fine by me.

    But these were different because they are suddenly blocked on youtube meaning they got removed from my channel

    - Ain't Goin' Down No More (Instrumental Version \ 1986 Sound City - Guns N' Roses  -  claimed by UMG for Geffen - Blocked in all countries

    - Move To The City (Acoustic Version / 1986 Sound City Session) - Guns N' Roses  -  claimed by UMG for Geffen - Blocked in all countries

    - Jumpin' Jack Flash (Acoustic Version / 1986 Sound City Session) - Guns N' Roses  -  claimed by UMG for Geffen - Blocked in all countries

    - Move To The City (Acoustic Version / 1986 Sound City Session) - Guns N' Roses  -  claimed by UMG for Geffen - Blocked in all countries

     

    These have been sitting there for a while and suddenly they got blocked same goes for the mystic studio tape it had to be removed too.

    So maybe GnFnR is looking to release those demo sessions

    How do you figure it's fair game?  I posted it on Soundcloud for a reason, read the 3rd post above.  Don't get me wrong, on a personal level I don't care and have nothing against you or Frans.  And I have no idea if GNR will care.  But if they do, they might not care as long as it's not downloadable.  Of course there are ways of getting around it, but just because you can doesn't mean that you should.  On the flip side if they do care and make it all get taken down, or even if someone just finds a runaround like Frans did and is able to download (in original quality) well then you can understand if no one does anything like this in the future when they come across gems like this.  For example I was privy to listen to unreleased GNR tracks in someone's hotel room during the last residency.  We also got to see pro shot footage from Puerto Rico (2009 or 2010) and pro shot footage of a soundcheck by the band with either Tommy or Bumble singing mot of the songs.  It was all with the understanding that no was recording it to be released later.  Hopefully you see what I am saying here. 

    Also when tweaked are you "improving" it really?  The raw sound is about the experience of it.  You can argue that cds improved the sound of vinyl (I don't mean the technical side of things, but I ma talking about the hiss, etc., those cool weird little sounds that happen when you play vinyl), but again it makes the experience different (keep in mind this comment is coming from someone that was raised on cds, I have never even owned a record player).  Live Era is another example where the audio was tweaked, and many have a problem with it.  Personally I don't but I can see their side.  There was a reason I had a professional transfer this at the highest quality possible.  We could have tweaked it as well but that betrays the rawness of it IMO.

    Seems i totally missed this discussion, yes i've put them on Youtube mainly because there's a much bigger audience that can hear this great release and there's more people to reach out to than on soundcloud and the more people are reached the less will buy that stuff offa ebay when some bootleg company will press it to silver or vinyl. I was only able to rip it from SC in mp3 128kbps ,i also told this to your friend who did the original transfer. I still really wonder if u could rip it as true FLAC, ofcourse i gave you and your 2 friends credits for it in the YT video and i'm not monetizing any of my video's on my channel. I agree that it's best to keep the original files in their original shape specially when sharing and if u remaster or retrack, do it for private use only. Since this wasnt really shared and only rippable in LQ (for most people) i did tweak it but mainly volume settings because when upped to my channel YT will rape the bitrate and volume once more. Besides there wasnt much to tweak anyways because even in 128 mp3 they sound killer and so i guess the FLACS still stay rare and not heavily circulating
