YouTube asks me to prove it's Public Domain. I told them it's 18th cenury music, come to us in manuscripts and old prints. And I asked them what kind of prove they want for this. Is US-law like this: they can ask me to prove I'm innocent? Our law-system the other way around: innocent until proven guilty, and 'they' have to prove I'm guilty.
