I have the same problems, most of the time with music guitarist plays, as
this music is edited by some publishers in guitar transcriptions. They have
a special function looking for every video if it  is matching title, music,
composer's name or other meta data, then there is an automatic claim. So it
is for Bach, Dowland, De Visée, Milan, Narvaez...
So you have to go to copyright infos, and "disput" the claim (there is a
disput process in two or three windows...). My argumentation is : public
domain music, played by myself from original sources. And it is enough to
stop the claim. (and get rid of the ads...)

It's a busy time of year for me:marking teenagers' coursework. According to one of them, youtube uploads 28 hours of material every minute. I haven't a clue about the veracity of this claim and one passing comment like this is a tiny point of the assessment objectives. Nevertheless it's a nice way of making the point that tons and tons of stuff is uploaded and it's unreasonable to expect 'youtube' to have expert knowledge of everything that is uploaded. And youtube is trying to do something about copyright (which I have certainly flouted a few times albeit at a microscopic level).

The disputed claim about copyright by 'rumblefish' of Go From My Window has now disappeared. And the ads have gone. And so, for the moment at least, youtube continues to be (on the face of it) a free service which must be costing someone somehow.

My Window'.  Two odd things:  adverts appeared on it and youtube said that
the tune was copyright and the copyright belongs to 'rumblefish'!

I've contested this and for the moment the ads have gone away.
I'm harassed by YouTube as well. For early music, like my most recent
De Visée / Coste clip. I keep telling them Tallis is Dead (they never
heard of Byrd). But so far every time I contested their claims
(they're not claims actually, they say they cannot verify my claims),
they eventually withdraw their objections, so I do keep contesting.

I think we should keep protesting, because if we keep silent we
certainly loose out (we will loose out anyway probably ...)
